Title: MONTHLY THEME CHALLENGE - February
Post by: Krysia@No98 on February 04, 2013, 05:32:23 PM
The theme of the month challenge is jointly sponsored by Tuffnells Glass (thank you Martin et al!) and Frit Happens!

Each month the lucky winner, chosen by a random number selector, will receive a £20 gift voucher to spend on-line with Tuffnells. The draw will take place at the start of **March** (Please note I am going to be away for the first few days) so make sure you get your entries in before midnight on the last day of February to be in with a chance to win the goodies!

Please note that the entries should be new work.

So, the theme for the month for February 2012 is Organics.

Wow, there's loads of stunners here already.. amazing work Sue.  I have two beads to show... again, front and back of same bead.... I am really annoyed that I can't get a decent pic of the second one, it has shots of almost swimming pool blue through it in real life...

Ok, in the spirit of ensuring that the newbies aren't too put off to enter, here is my organic lentil bead. It actually started life as a gravity round bead but I got bored with it and lentiled it. Added some Gaia silver glass and happy with colours.

It hasn't been annealed yet as I haven't been over to see helsbels this week so it may crack.  We will have to wait and see.

I love everyone's beads! and they're all so different!

Organic really isn't something I've tried, I think maybe I need to learn a bit of restraint, especially with the silver foil  :) Here's my effort, front and back of the same bead (apologies for the dodgy photos)

Sediment is an Effetre glass - not sure if it's available in the UK - but if you would like a rod to try PM me your address and I'll fling one in your direction next weekend (I'm working away all this week).

This sounded like a fun theme; I was looking forward to seeing what everyone would come up with, and you lot certainly didn't disappoint! Some absolutely scrumptious things here (and some ideas I may, ahem, take inspiration from...) and a variety of approaches; my particular personal favourite is Jeannette's plate.

So this is my effort; I hope it's "organic" enough. These are about 2.5 cm long, and the plan is to turn them into a pair of earrings, but I don't have the right wire for the hooks right now, so, until I find some, they're just some beads on headpins:

Skin of the teeth job - had to take the photos outside on a very dull day, and just managed to upload them.  Anyway, here's my organic - 2 sides of the same bead.  It's 3 1/4 cm each way, and Sediment and Carribean Sea, with murrini and encased.

I hope this isn't too late. I made these beads last week but with everything going on this week forgot all about them. I have really enjoyed this challenge.
