Sunshine Originals - Artistry In Beads gif

 

Bead news, new bead projects, new beadwork creations, updated gallery pages, etc. You'll find all the new bead stuff and beadwork updates here!!  Because my web site is in a constant state of perpetuity, I can only keep 2, perhaps 3, months worth of updates on the page.  However, I hope, you're visiting more often than that   ;-)  big grin...heh, heh.

WHAT'S NEW and UPDATES

June 9th new animated gifYou still have time to get your 4th of July jewelry, but you have to act fast!!  I'll be on vacation from the 24th of June til the 3rd of July!!  I will have internet access while I'm on the other side of the States, so you can still e-mail and/or make purchases, just note that shipments won't go out til my return.

June 8th new animated gif- The description page for El's Purple Hippy Earring is finally done...sheesh, longest description page I've ever done for an earring I think...big fat grin!!  Also, as we do every couple of months, we've got some new LINK partners on the various link pages, give them a look-see.

June 6th new animated gifURGENT!!!  Red Ventling, WHERE ARE YOU??  As many of you know, I feature many of Red's fabulous cabochons on my site.  In the last month I've gotten a half dozen e-mails requesting to sell just the cabs I have in  MY personal collection that I have available for customer custom orders only.  Red's website is still active, but apparently her *e-mail* is NOT, as even ~my~ e-mail to her was returned as undeliverable.  PLEASE, if anyone out there knows Red and has a current e-mail for her, please let me know!!  I hate to think she's losing all this business and may not even be aware of it!!

May 30th new animated gif- Check out the new EARRINGS!

May 15th new animated gifAny TRUE bead-a-holic knows that there is no such thing as TOO MANY BEADS and all of it's associated supplies!!  Bead-a-holics are TRUE ~hoarders~!!  We know that some day, we're going to do SOMETHING with this, that, or the other *bead* thing we've acquired for future projects!!  Go ahead, tell me it ain't so, I dare you.. heh,heh.  Myself, I've got 8 filing drawer cabinets full of all my idea files, rough sketches, half done patterns, inspirations, a book I never seem to find time to finish, yadda, yadda.  I figure if I don't come up with another inspiration EVER, I'll have to live to be 3,840 years old before I could EVER complete all the projects, ideas that I've been inspired to do!!  Over the years, I get continuous requests from people to sell some of my supplies (which I've been hoarding and dare not part with cuz, who knows, tomorrow I may need it for a project!!).  Well, truth be known, I'm getting older, eyesight is failing badly {though you faithful followers of my work are already aware that I've been sight impaired for a very good number of years}, heavy sigh, I digressed....I have come to admit to myself that I will NEVER be able to complete all the projects that I've acquired 'supplies' for.  So, with that being said, you will notice that certain items on my site that were not available for sale before ARE NOW available.  It will take me some time  to fully post/list items in my stock, but for starters...Hair Sticks are now available.

April 22nd new animated gifThere are a bunch of Patriotic Holidays on their way, I have a new addition for proudly wearing the Red, White, and Blue!!  Check it out in the Seasonal/Holiday GalleryDon't forget to get your orders in early for any of the Red, White, and Blue items that are available.  If you don't see anything that strikes your fancy, just contact me and let me know what I can create for you to suit your Patriotic needs!!

April 16th new animated gif- Please don't forget that we have several special occasion days coming up, there's Mother's Day and Father's Day.  I have many unique gift items to pick and choose from and then, of course, you can custom order anything you like, I'll do my best to accommodate your desires...so visit the galleries and find that perfect gift for Mom or Dad today!!  Speaking of Mom's and Dad's, if you know someone that is ~expecting~ a new bundle of joy, I have my newest gallery dedicated to babies...check it out in the Seasonal/Holiday Gallery.

April 14th -Whew!!  Sunshine wipes sweat from brow...ya'll been keeping me busy with reproductions of earrings and necklaces...Thanks to all of you!!  I have to give a shout-out to ~Jana~ it would seem the long dangly Porcupine Earring is definitely the hot trend and I owe it all to her special requests!! Go check out the EARRINGS page for the newest addition!

March 6th - Additions to the NECKLACE, MEDICINE BAGS/SHIELDS, LAPEL PINS , and     OTHER PROJECTS  pages...check them out!!  As well, I've been updating the availability of the gemstone cabochons in the GEMSTONE CAB GALLERY.      I've added hyperlinks to various pages for examples of how different stones have been implemented.

Nov  5th - See the new NECKLACE I've just created and my White Tiger Face  earring pattern has a following, see the NECKLACE and the BROOCH.

Oct  22nd  - Oh good grief!!  Where does the time go??  I've been so busy I can't believe an entire month has gone by since my last update!!  Sheesh!!  We've got a new Gallery addition to the SEASONAL/HOLIDAY  page, it's THANKSGIVING with some Fall/Autumn item(s), it's a small gallery right now, but it should grow....go check it out!!

Sept  23rd - Well, I've been trying to catch up on some unfinished business, doing custom orders, and trying to create some new stuff.  I finished the description page for Randy's huge Turtle bag, go check it out MEDICINE BAGS/SHIELDS I've also got some new additions to the BABY GALLERY, and hopefully by the time you're reading this, all the description pages will be done as well!!  It's also that time of year when we start celebrating the Holiday's, so check out the new additions to the HALLOWEEN GALLERY, and DON'T FORGET to start getting your orders in for the Christmas season!!  Lastly, I'd love to show you my latest project, a custom order for a huge fan of mine, but it's um....daring, and I'm not sure if I'd lose my Safe Surf rating, so I'm not going to risk it.  But if you're over 18, drop me a line, and I'll be more than happy to share the photo's with you.

Sept  22nd - I have a close and dear friend that is deaf and she has been fascinated with my work for a year or two and now dang if she hasn't caught the beading bug!!  Heh, heh, beads are an addiction for sure.  What's great about Kim's work is she does stuff I DON'T do!!  (She says she can't figure out how I work with these itty bitty beads so her stuff is with much larger beads and accents!!).  As a DEAF person she has had many obstacles and her new jewelry making hobby is a way for her to earn some extra pocket money so please show/help with Kim's new endeavor and check out the new gallery page I've dedicated to her work,  KIM'S GALLERY.   There are 2 new additions to the long dangly genuine Porcupine Quill EARRINGS!
