Yesterday was the last meeting of Women of the Word and so I made all the women in my group (and then some) a beaded bookmark. I thought I had written a tutorial for these, but apparently, I have not!! I will try to write one for you soon.
Written!! You can find my tutorial for these bookmarks at Suite101.
Here are a few of my favorites.
I have several like the one above except that the accent bead is a different color on them. I would be happy to give three of them to the first three who say they would like one.
Isn't the book beautiful? I bought it several years ago at a thrift store just because I was so enamored with the artwork. I have no idea what the story is about although the tiny bit I've scanned seems like it is a fairy or fantasy in the style of a Greek or Roman myth. I want to try reading it someday.
A quick search of the internet reveals that it is probably based on an Irish myth.

Oh that is so beautiful!! My last day of my Bible Study was on Monday and when I got there I felt empty handed not having a gift for all of those beautiful women (not that anyone else gave gifts) I just love giving. These are just beautiful. I am going to bookmark your tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing and joining my Gifts From the Heart Party. Hopefully next month I will figure out why Linky is not working!!
ReplyDeleteHave a Blessed Day!
Those are beautiful, what a lovely gift they would make!
