It’s been a while but I’ve finally listed some new beads on my web site. Included are the new Venus beads. Well, they’re not really new because I did something along these lines last year. But these are better and more colorful. I worked out some of the design issues.

Below are the ones I did a year ago. Can you see the evolution or do they look the same to you?

These were just throwing out colors and design elements as I worked. The newer ones were more planned out color-wise. They also took into account the different colors that were being layered over each other. Colors were chosen that really gave depth to the glass around the borders and the intricate dots on the sides.

I guarantee that when you see the new ones that you will want to touch them. And you can. Come see me at Bead & Button in June. Or Art Unraveled for one day in August. Maybe I’ll bring some to the Gathering too.

They’re definitely different but I love them. Especially the new ones. The texture is great. Now I need to come up with some small accent beads so I can make some jewelry for myself…and maybe you can make some for yourself too. Be sure to check them all out at lorigreenberg.com. Oh, and if you notice that some of the new beads are already sold, that’s because if you’re on my newsletter mailing list you get first notice of new beads and sales. Why not sign up while you’re over there…you will never get more than one email a week. Unless it’s an emergency.

I’ve forgotten how long and tedious this process is. Here’s what I’ve posted today so far:

And here’s what I have to go:

You can even watch them appear in real time by clicking this link and refreshing your browser every five minutes. I mean, what else do you have to do? THIS is what has kept me from picking the $500 free bead winner! I want to make sure they have enough variety to shop from. So, if you see any here that you like, you had better snatch them up because once I pick the winner and sent out my newsletter, they may not be around for long. Or, at least, I can hope.
Think about it…someone able to pick $500 worth of beads for free? I’d go for the big ones, and the sets.
I’m just sayin’.

Hi All.
If you’re on my email list you know about the contest. I’ve been meaning to get back here and let you know about it too but thing have been crazy getting ready for Tucson.
The basics of the contest are this…
For every $25 you spend with me through midnight this Sunday. (Mountain Standard Time) you will be given an entry for a drawing to win $500 of beads from me…your choice of beads on my web site. When I get back from Tucson I will be updating the web site with the new stacked dot beads and whatever inventory I have left from the show too.
So, if you spend $50 you get 2 entries, etc. People buying in Tucson are also being entered for each $25 they spend.
Five Hundred Dollars in beads, people. Go shop now!

Updates about the show when I can get to them…it’s been a tight schedule here!
