Bead Soup Cafe's Blogger/Non-Blogger #9 Challenge: Double The Fun

The current challenge is hosted by Toltec Jewels and she chose the following Inspiration/Muse Photos for us to design by!


Frida Kahlo, "Time Flies" self-portrait. Oil, 1938




"Teal Goddess" modern photography, artist unknown.

I loved them both but I could not deny the "Teal Goddess" her spotlight,  so here is my offering:
Pearl Crystal Twist
Made with Glass Pearls and Faceted A/B finished "Peacock" Crystals
 Until next time, may you be Blessed with Abundant Peace and Prosperity

AnZiPanZ Designs is OPEN for BUSINESS!

Well folks I made it official on 8/9/2013 on the site Store Envy.com!  
I even put a button on my blog....see look to your right....click it and it takes you right to my store front!


I have been slow about getting this set up but now it's done and it's off to the races.  Because now not only do I need to advertise, advertise, advertise, I also need to keep my bead pliers humming by making more pieces for everyone!

Whew! Just tired thinking about it, but God has blessed me this far so I am praying for more Creativity and Awesome health!


Thanks for reading my Blog and taking a little time to visit the store at

Just a Little bit of Sparkle

Always Brightens my day!

Peace & God's Greatest Blessings to You

OMG! It's Time for the BEAD HOARDER'S BLOG HOP! OMG!


I decided to participate in this latest Blog Hop by our Evil Master Mind/Author/Blogger/Host of our face book group "Bead Soup Cafe ~ Lori Anderson, because I was not feeling all that creative and my little life has been in a bit of a tail spin these days.


Not only would it bring attention to my little stash, but I had very high hopes that this would break my "Beader's Block" so I can make some sparkle money to buy more sparkles.....oh and pay a bill too! !lol!

 Well if you checked out my post yesterday It has been like pulling teeth around here in the "Creativity Department" ugh...! 

Well last night/this morning I found some inspiration from ....! KUNGFU PANDA!  Yes ladies and gentlemen I said !KUNGFU PANDA!  Mr. Po ~ Dragon Lord himself!



I woke up with swirling colors and karate chops dancing in my head and got to work!  And no I had not taken my meds yet(long story) so this was natural brain waves flowing......LOL! 
My mother thought it was toooo funny, but it worked!

Always something Blue and Sparkling added somewhere!


Ceramic, Glass and Crystal Beads
I believe this is my longest piece to date, about 28inchs outside/ 24inches inside.  It is a bit heavy because of the ceramic and glass beads. 

And yes I noticed it also fits with the "Fourth of July" which made me laugh even more when I finished!





I do apologize for being late with my post and I appreciate everyone that stopped by before I got this finished.  Thanks for visiting and keep Hopping there are more fabulous creations just waiting to be seen  from my fellow hoarders below!

God's Everlasting Peace
