I've been thinking about this for many months now...

Earlier this year I bought (more like I'm renting for 1 year) the domain www.FierceDesigners.com . I was doing a project for a business class and came up with this whole complex idea that would be called FierceDesigners.com, and I even went ahead and bought the domain because I thought I would actually make it happen. I came across some complications, and also realized that it would be too time consuming as well as a hassle so I felt the plan abandoned and came up with a new idea for my project.

This domain has been pretty much abandoned for all of these months (I've even had it for sale but no takers). I have several blogs altogether but two in particular that are closely related. Anywho, this is what's going to take place, from now on (well at least until my domain expires) all of my would-be postings on here and on my artsy blog are going to be posted on FierceDesigners.com. This will most-likely be a temporary thing since I doubt I'll renew the domain next year...but it'll make things easier for me (and hopefully for you all) to keep track of. I'll leave this blog as-is but I'm not planning on updating it during that time (and I know that I lack updating this one too often).

Something

Several months ago the Seed Bead board on the Bead & Button forum (http://cs.beadandbutton.com/bnbcs/forums/) was holding a "Different Strokes For Different Folks" challenge. The idea was to take this pattern for the Star Bracelet designed by Ruby (btw: she has a lot of wonderful patterns!): http://www.rubysbeadwork.com/StarBracelet.html and then pretty much do our own thing using her pattern as the basis for the item. So I was all excited about joining in on this. I had nearly completed the bracelet according to her pattern and was going to add my own embellishments to it and then a clasp but then more health issues struck the family so I came to a halt on a lot of things I wanted to do while dealing with that. Anywho, I also missed the deadline during that time and the bracelet was still unfinished. I decided not to add anything and just went ahead and made a simple clasp just so that the bracelet would be finished. And now I've finally gotten around to actually taking pictures of it, haha.

It's made all from a Toho mixture called Pink Frost.

The other night I "finished" this little free form thing:

Nada clue what I'm going to do with it. Maybe I'll continue adding on to it...or maybe I'll attempt to turn it into some kind of focal for a necklace...ah, who knows!

Oops

Obviously I've been terrible about keeping this blog up to date...my apologies to anyone who cares.

In the meantime I'll just post this fun picture I took of some of my beads while I was playing around with the camera.



Well anywho, I thought it turned out to be a cool pic, lol.
