Regal Beads
Today's feature is on the gorgeous beadwork of Regal beads. Please read her profile below.
"I have loved doing crafts for most of my life (in fact, my dad loves to tell an embarrassing childhood story on me about this passion ;))Both of my parents are quite creative, and passed this down to me!I started beading over five years ago and took to it like a fish to water. I love the feel of the beads in my hands, the challenge of a new pattern, and the joy of a completed piece!For years this has been one of my hobbies, with my personal collection growing quite large, and with many family members and friends also benefiting.I have now decided to share these treasures with the world."

The work of Danelle of Damdesign is quite unique as you can see in the examples below. Not only does she design wearable art in the form of earrings and pendants, but her brightly colored pieces like the two that caught my eye would be gorgeous additions to many homes. Please check out her wonderful etsy shop.

Today I am featuring the lovely artwork of Damdesign. Please read her profile below.
"I have grown up living on art. I have always been a crafty person and my mom always tells this story from back when I was 3 -- I used to get up in the morning and watch the art programs that used to play on T.V. One day I was watching and I brought to my sleeping mom a basket I made all by myself. She said it was cut, there was glue, and it was woven together...and I was only 3. She always tells me that she wishes she had kept it. Well the passion for art and crafty things has been with me my entire life, and I finally decided that it was time to sell my art. I put a lot of time and heart into the pieces of art I create, and I love doing it. "

Winter Solstice
The winter solstice will arrive this year on December 22, at 1:08 AM. At that point the hours of daylight will increase and night hours will decrease. That is a happy thought for those ,like me who long for warmth,sunny days and flowers. Deabusamor's winter solstice photo seems to depict that longing for spring with the sun behind the icicles reminding us of warmer days to come. Deabusamor's talent is evident not only in her amazing photos but in the stunning polymer bead set below. Check out her exciting etsy shop.
