The Beauty of Spring with ArtBeads!!!!

Art Beads is declaring "February as the month of ‘The Beauty of Spring‘ for our blogger community." That being said, I was given the opportunity to choose items for review and asked to use them in my interpretation of spring. (the way winter has been here - I am ready for spring!)

I immediately went to the furnace glass section - you know me and furnace glass. I used the
