Yes, it is super cute. I want to cuddle it!  :-*


I initially made these to enter this month's theme challenge, but now I'm also selling them to raise a bit of money to buy a kiln (on my facebook page). These are my first 'sculptural' beads (though I haven't really sculpted anything - just placed a lot of dots, haha). The wire wrappings that dangle beneath the birds' bodies are supposed to resemble legs. I've made 2 more grey birdy-beads and perhaps I will etch those ones and make another pair of earrings.

A turtle dove from me - it comes with much swearing and a taurus saw added to my christmas list :D

Here's my first ever attempt at an owl!



White / Goldstone ribbon / Clear / Millefiori / silver black

I'm really pleased I managed to keep the goldstone sparkly. It's also the biggest bead I've made to date!

loving all the different birds!

its hard for me to choose which bird design of mine I'd add here, since I have several! but as this is supposed to be a challenge, and new work, here is my latest owl, sorry if you saw him already in the gallery! it has been a long time coming, for me to mix my silver glass beads with my sculptural in this way, and I'm really pleased! Silver glass chickens are next! I have made two but no time (or proper daylight!) for pics just now.



and the back of a different one:



I wrote a blog post about some of my design process if you are interested.

I love your owl Madeline and I would be very interested in your blog.
Anything has to be better than an "M" shaped bird!! ???

Lovely birds, especially your owl Madeline.
