Default Space-Themed Beads

I did some men-in-the moon, a sun, rockets, and a flying saucer with somewhat smeared martians.

Those are fantastic! Everyone is going to love them but the boys will be so happy with the spaceships! Fantastic.

Thanks all. I have some other ideas for flying saucers I'm going to work on tomorrow. I bought the graphite lentil plates for my total parallel mashers and they make really nice, thick, kid-friendly lentils. I've been experimenting with ways to use them. Flying saucers are perhaps the most fun.

Awesome! I think anything with a face is a big hit with the kids, and anything with a space theme goes right to the top of the wish list!

Thanks for the kind words. The problem with these beads is that I've had Elton John in my head singing "Rocket Bead" for three days now and he won't go away. I may have to switch themes.

Susan,
I just got a note from HQ about the beads that you've sent - they are really, really excited about them. Great work! Thought you'd like to know that you hit one out of the park.

Robert

Hi Robert,

I'm so glad to hear that they like them! I've certainly had a lot of fun making them. Thanks for the feedback

How about doing a tutorial on the space ship bead in the Soda Lime Times?

Excellent idea Debbie. I'll put that on my "things I must do" list. Thanks so much for the suggestion!
