HOW DID YOU ?

Run, little guy, run! You are so cute!

Tracy

Hello! My first visit here--your blog is just delicious, a splendid visual delight! Your beaded unicorn is a wonder. How ever did you do that?! I look forward to coming back and reading/seeing more. Happy weekend to you :o)

Gemma

OMG!!! He is gorgeous!

Anne

I love that! I can't even begin to imagine how you did it.

Lucy

Vanessa you are a girl of many talents, that little fella is very cute indeed, was he your own design or do beads have patterns too?
My mind boggles over the technical beady bit, it looks hugely complicated and acomplished.
I agree with Tracy, your blog is indeed a Splendid Visual Delight, I so look forward to visiting your creative world each day. Have a wonderful weekend
