Well, here I am finally finishing and posting my Bead Journal Project on the very last day! Thank you, leap year 🙂
This month, I used the same size mini collage in the middle of the pendant as last month. I choose the word blooming because on all the nature walks, I have been taking things are starting to get buds. 2 of course for the second month February. The star shaped flowers to go with the stars, I put on the collage. Green leaves for the new growth that is starting. The amber and orange beads to show the gorgeous colors of the sunsets this time of year! The shape of the piece is to represent a compass, blooming any direct you go!
It’s spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you’ve got it, you want – oh, you don’t quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so! ~Mark Twain
Thanks so much for stopping in to check out my Bead Journal Project this month! Hope you have a lovely day!

Love this. Great colors. Ilove love love the way you combine beads and collage. I’m intrigued with the little bale you made, from beads. This is really wonderful and it really does say “spring fever!!!
Beautiful job. I’m not finished my Feb. piece yet, and I’m not sure I’ll make it even with this extra day 😛
You have really put a lot of thought into this piece. It is a great piece and I love hearing your thoughts about it.
I really like your color combination. I agree it looks like spring.

You’ve put into beads just what we’re experiencing here in the UK – glorious skies, optimistic buds and bulbs and a hint of warmth in the air – lovely. It’s also a very attractive shape.
I’ve GOT it; and it fairly makes my hear ache, I want it so! Yep! You did it, Kim… you made my heart ache with the loveliness of this piece. I got tears in my eyes reading the part about the shape. OMG! It’s fabulous!

WOW you really outdid yourself this month. You put so much thought into your pieces. I really LOVE the shape of this one. I would have never thought of using flower beads like you did, it really works. Your color choices truly flatter the collage you chose for this month. It does scream Spring to me! Cant wait to see more.
I love this. So fresh and fun! Great job!
