done for this month.

My page for January is done. Or I should say, the front is done. I have to add a stif filling and a backside. I'm thinking of making a beaded fringe at the bottom but haven't decided yet. I'm showing 2 detail pics of the page. For the whole page, see my blog. It was a joy to make and I learned several things already. I love to hear your opinions and suggestions. Things can always get better.

Hi Cobi,
I checked out the full picture on your blog and WOW, did you ever create a beautiful January beaded piece. Free flowing, lots of texture, and so many techinques used. This is one impressive piece. Thanks so much for sharing the piece with all of us. Hugs, Diane

Hi Cobi,

Ooooooh, you are a texture/color master!!! I'll be off to your blog to see it all in a moment!

Although I love seeing them, we set a policy of no pictures of BJP work on the BJP blogs until after April 1st. The reason is because some participants don't want to be influenced by the work of others until their own style is set. Please continue to post on your personal blog and post a link here. After April 1st, anything goes on the BJP blogs! Thanks!

Thank you for all the lovely comments about my first bead journal. I put everything in it that I love. I'm doing more and more 3D in all my work nowadays. I love natural scenes, art nouveau, toadstools and using different techniques and materials. My problem now is how I can ever come up with something else. I don't want to do more of the same. Robin I know you said not to show the work on the blog, that's why I added only small details from which you really cannot tell what it really looks like. Sorry to do wrong again.
