Headin' to a hive



Here's a peek at a colony of bee-ds! Happily they've already been swooped up to head to a new hivey home (thanks Erin!) but more can be created on request.I love when happy glaze reactions occur, the last two kiln loads had a bunch of goodies that made me smile.
There are a bunch of new patterns debuting as well, almost all are taken from ethnic inspirations... Mediterranean, Indonesian, Moroccan, etc.

  1. It is bee-yond bee-lief that you have made me all a-buzz! I love the way these little guys turned out...a fitting tribute to the Great Bee Escapade of 2009 (pretty much all buzzed out).
    You have outdone yourself, Miss Mellisa! Thanks again!
    Bzzzzzz!

  2. The bees are so sweet. What cute little creatures. I'm really digging that paisley pendant. The glaze is so brilliant with the green and blue.

  3. I am a huge fan of the Morrocan inspired patterns , absolutely gorgeous. I like the bee-ds also! So cute. My mom sees beads like this and says how much she thinks her grandkids would love to play with a necklace she was wearing if it had bee-ds on it. Great job!
