Don't you just love Bead Soup!
Not familiar with bead soup? Its recipe is simple. First, you take a big ole bowl (or, in my case, an old cookie tin). Then, you throw in all your mismatched beads. Mix well, and dive in. Yummy, yummy! The best part of Bead Soup is its diversity. You can serve it at any function-- formal or casual (or, best of all, at a pajama party). And it's low in calories! It never spoils, and in fact gets better over time. And you can always add new ingredients, the more the merrier.

Here's what I pulled out of my own Bead Soup this week.
How fun, I love the pipe cleaners with the beads.
ReplyDeleteI have button soup but I never thought of doing bead soup. What a great idea!

ReplyDeleteJoee - I love, love, love that bird's tailfeathers. What a great burst of color!
ReplyDeleteOh I do love bead soup! and your art. so glad to have found you.
ReplyDeletesounds like fun! I try to do that with pulling cut fabric squares out of a jar, but it's hard to accept the random placement some times!
ReplyDeleteQuestion for you, if you would....I made one of your witch's hats, turned out great, but do you paint the batting that is on the bottom of the brim?? Because it is right next to the head. Helps it it fit better though. Or did I do the hat wrong??
thanks!
You must have started with a magical bowl because your Bead Soup is STUPENDOUS!
