Bead Soup September 2011

Have you heard of Bead Soup?

If you are involved in the handmade bead and jewelry world, chances are that you've heard of it.

Lori Anderson (Pretty Things) hosts this bead swap and jewelry making event twice a year.

This year I was able to remember to actually sign up and get involved.

I think it will be exciting to give jewelry making - blind date style - a try.

Miri Agassi Beadwork.

My partner for Fall 2011 Bead Soup is Miri Agassi.

So you know she just has to have a wonderful loving personality…

I am honored to be able to get to know her through this blogging event,

As well as for the hundreds of other bead soup bloggers.
