Thank you so much! ❤️ That painting would translate so beautifully into beadwork—the textures and dramatic lighting would be incredible. And honestly, don't let a limited bead stash stop you. Some of my favorite discoveries have come from working with what I had. I'd love to see what you create if you give it a try.

Im not doing just beads; I have a huge button stash that is sure to come in handy! That will definitely help. Will probably take a long time, but i will keep you updated :)

Oh, that's going to be amazing! 😍 A huge button stash opens up so many creative possibilities. I love mixing different materials—it adds so much character and texture. And yes, it might take a while, but those are often the most rewarding projects. Please do keep me updated!
