I've been collecting seashells for as long as I can remember. From east to west, coast to coast, and shore to shore, I always find a treasure to keep, and adore.

Beaded Pillows

TGIM! Yes, Thank God it's MONDAY, because I have been wanting to do this post for days!

I'd like you to meet Karen, from The Beaded Pillow...Etsy shop, and blog! I've been following Karen's blog ever since I found her on one of my Etsy Teams (probably the Etsy blog team)

Karen does fabulous work doing beaded pillows! A couple of weeks ago she had a contest to name her newest pillow, and a name came to me....and she chose the name I came up with for her pillow!!!

This is Paradise Wild!
This gorgeous, and colorful hand beaded pillow is in Karen's Etsy shop, The Beaded Pillow! and I chose the name!

There is so much detail in her pillows, and so very many hours go into each one! Her handiwork is amazing, and I'm just in awe over her ability!

For naming this beauty, I received a set of beaded snowman coasters from her, and they are darling!

I almost don't want to use them...but maybe to set a cup of coffee or cocoa on...for a few minutes...and only for the holiday season, and then these lovelies will be wrapped in tissue paper and lovingly stored with the rest of the Christmas decorations.

Karen sold my favorite pillow a while ago, but I have to show it to you anyway.
I love this Orange Octopus pillow! I love the colors, and the print....and her work! You can check out Karen's beaded creations in her Etsy shop...The Beaded Pillow!

Thank you for the coasters Karen! I will cherish them forever, and I will always remember Paradise Wild!

My daughter Laci made something for me, and I will be sharing them this week, too!

See you soon!

Have a beachy day! (it's going to be 82 degrees here today!)
Del

Wow, these beaded pillows are amazing. And of course I adore the octopus!! I can't but wonder how long it takes to create one of these beauties!

STUNNING! I've never seen anything quite like those pillows and they are beautiful. The bird one is so pretty but I have to agree that the Octopus would be my favorite pick as well. Guest blogs are fun, don't you agree?? Thank you for sharing her!
