Owl Bead Craze

Yesterday I spent the day making owls and owl molds (and a couple of other bead focals). Trying out a few designs for a line of owl beads.    Here's the loot...

These owls still have to go in the oven... 2 owl heads and a full body owl (who i really like and think i'll call Oliver)

Some owl molds.... and a heart molded from a vintage button (a thrift shop find)...Oliver was molded from the  one on the lower left....

Hand painted owlies...the pink one still needs highlights and maybe a glaze of gold... 

  and some other floral cabochons and bead molded from a button and a swirly focal pendant...

I'm putting the etsy shop on vacation starting tomorrow until Easter Sunday. I'll be preparing food and stuff for a beach outing on Thursday and Friday. It's the perfect weather for the beach and I can't wait. Hubby's been very busy lately with deadlines so, it will be awesome to spend some time with him relaxing by the shore. Pictures to come!
