Today is the 5th beadsoup blog hop...

 I'm hopping but have no soup on my burner....

So instead of Soup I have a work in progress.... Playing with some of my new enameled headpins!  This did not start out as a bird....  I'm still tossing around ideas on how to fill in the wing....  The piece has loops on both ends so will become part of a neckpiece....

Would love to see some creative  comments

Size just over 4 inches/ 10 cm loop to loop.

Almost Wordless Wednesday & Bead Table Wednesday (BTW)

These are sugar cube beads... I tripped over an online tutorial to make these at beadifferent.com.

 The one on the left has had the sugar cube dissolved ... When I had finished the first one ... I thought that the 'weave' was way to open but once you are looking though the bead it looks great!
