I can't believe that I've finished this round. Here is the link to both July and August. Be sure to click on the individual photo in order to read about each piece. I'm complete but this is only the beginning, as I'm looking forward to the next one.
I don't see how to leave a comment on your site, so I'll just tell you here that your work is exquisite in every way... technically, emotionally and design-wise... all gorgeous. I love the way you bezelled the blister pearl and I love both pieces from your SW vacation, especially the stones and fossil you collected and added to your July piece. Bravo on finishing the year!!!
Blog #1 Blog #3 We have three BJP blogs because Blogger only allows 100 authors per blog. We have 260 members, so in order for everyone to be able to post, we need 3 blogs. We hope you'll visit and comment on all three.
A step by step tutorial on how to set up your own blog can be found here.
About the Bead Journal Project
The brain child of Robin Atkins, the first Bead Journal Project, which began in June of 2007, included 241 women and 1 man who were dedicated and committed to creating 12 bead journal pages, one per month, for a year.
The BJP is all about visual journaling using any media and techniques, providing it includes some beading. We are free to structure our bead journal pages any way we want, as long as all 12 are the same size.
The current years' Bead Journal Project runs from September, 2008 through August, 2009. This blog is a means by which we may support each other in process, techniques and design. Participants (many with links to their personal blogs or websites) are listed below.
Bead Journal Project Information
Visit the Bead Journal Project website! Visit the 2008 BJP member pages, a gallery of completed work by members who have finished 8 or more pages during the first year of the project.
The 2008-09 BJP, starts with September and continues through August of 09. Guidelines for participation may be found here. To be an official member and to post to this blog, you must have registered prior to August 15, 2008.
We have our own BJP Flickr group, where we can post pictures of our work. This is a good way for members who do not have a personal blog to post pictures. Also, you can see many BJP pieces by different members in one place. You must "join" Flickr to post your pictures.
Due to limitations of Blogger, there are three ongoing blogs to document the Bead Journal Project this year. Here are links to all three blogs:

Wonderful work, Susan! All your pieces seem quite magical when seen together . . .

Gorgeous! It's great to see all the pages together. I love July's fossil.
