Deb Harding says:Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh as I run screaming to the bead board to finish!!!!!
lol
I don’t wanna hear it Julie!!!

Julie Shane says:HEAR YE!!! HEAR YE!!!
Yep… I can’t wait… I have some crazy stuff for all of you.
Here are 2 hints…

Julie Shane says:Becky, BTW this is a great pick. I have not noticed the black sunstone yet. The light topaz crystals (BLING!!!) bring out all the pretty markings in the stones.
On Feb 10, 2013 at 1:24 pm #
Deb Harding says:A flyswatter!!!!! Seriously! A flyswatter!!!! Are you gonna have blingy crystal flies attached to.it and its the pendant hanging from a flystrip??
Weird coincidence….I watched the entire The Fly movie series last night.

Deb Harding says:And wow!!!!! This is a great pick Becky! I was too busy having an anxiety attack to notice. PEARLS!!! CRYSTALS!!!

Crazy Chick Frida says:Hahaha no pressure here
Actually I have to redo picecs 
Fabulous pick Becky

NY Bella says:Becky, thanks for the reminder- I forgot what I did with the pieces I made!!! As always, your pick is fab!
BTW- what’s Julie up to this time?
On Feb 10, 2013 at 4:20 pm #
Elis Mom says:I haven’t even started! Doubt I’ll make it to this challenge either. I do all my photos on the weekend AMs. And I don’t have my fishing lures or mini hibcaps!
Like your pick, Becky!

puppychick labratbecky says:If it makes you feel any better, I never did get my hands on an octopus. I have to go with something else but I am still going to look for one tomorrow.
On Feb 10, 2013 at 6:23 pm #
puppychick labratbecky says:Julie is being a clever little devil.
On Feb 10, 2013 at 6:25 pm #
Crazy Chick Frida says:Julie is making something to fishing beads with
?

Sonja J says:Gorgeous! I wish I could buy all those pieces. =^__^=

Lady425 aka Beth says:Wish I could join your challenge – maybe some day! Becky, I love your pick – great color arrangement!
On Feb 10, 2013 at 6:42 pm #
puppychick labratbecky says:Thank you, Sonja and Beth! I am sure we will come up with more craziness with the group of chickies on board now.

Deb Harding says:Hey! ” I resemble that remark!!
On Feb 10, 2013 at 7:22 pm #
Julie Shane says:Darn it Deb… I didn’t think of the flypaper. Maybe I’ll need to re-design my re-purpose!
HA HA HA {with an evil tone}
On Feb 10, 2013 at 7:42 pm #
Asia says:Thanks for the reminder, Becky. Julie I think you are either going senile with the rest of us, a fly swatter I really can’t wait to see your piece.I’m done but not happy with one project, took picture before I left, don’t think I will have the opportunity to do more photos as I’m working like crazy right now. BTW the pick is really cool
On Feb 10, 2013 at 7:42 pm #
Elis Mom says:Becky, where are you going to find an octopus? Can’t get that at the 7-11!
Flypaper. Hmm…
On Feb 10, 2013 at 7:46 pm #
Asia says:How about a frozen one or there is always the flypaper ;D
On Feb 11, 2013 at 9:50 am #
puppychick labratbecky says:Fresh frozen and blinged out.
Susie–that’s exactly the problem—where???? I had an old one that died and went to Davy Jones locker and unfortunately I threw it away—totally was not looking ahead. 
I did come up with another design with some almost antiques but it won’t be as clever as Julie’s. And I might have another in the works…….. bwahahaha

OK Jacki says:I’m so glad you guys are nuts! You make me laugh. I can’t do the challenge,(work
) but I can’t wait to see what you come up with. my crazy Chickie friends!
And, ps, Becky, your pick is awesome.

Lois D says:Where does one find out about these beading ‘challenges’? They sound like fun!
On Feb 11, 2013 at 12:43 pm #
Deb Harding says:Lois they seem to be spur of the moment things influenced by picks. This one came about from a pick called “The Glare! Beware!” by NY Bella aka Maria one night when we were all up to late being silly and dreaming of warm weather and sunshine. It kind of snowballed from there. The last one, The Big Ball Challenge came from a pick Julie did with that 32mm filigree ball. Its not to late to enter this one really. If you have a bunch of crystals/shiny stuff and some silly non-jewelry item to repurpose go for it!!!! Its fun and also challenges your brain (mine hurts jk).

Lois D says:Thanks for the info., Deb
I’ll have to start paying attention to all the wonderful Fresh Picks “picked daily” to see what neat ideas folks come up with. I’m such a luddite when it comes to designs, so I doubt I’ll jump in. But, I DO love to see what others create, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Now…if I can just remember to check the picks daily…!
On Feb 11, 2013 at 3:21 pm #
Deb Harding says:If you see.a pick with lots and lots of comments something is going on probably.

foxhill designs vt says:Great pick, Becky! Can’t wait to see all the bling.
