Monday Muse and Beady Link Party

Hello! Well July is just zooming by, isn't it? And speaking of things zooming by, today's very late Monday Muse is focused on bees. There seems to a bee for every type of bonnet and I found quite a lovely sampling on Etsy from artists all over the world. Let's take a peek:

This bee pendant from the Classic Beads reminds me of something you'd find in a Victorian garden. I love the earthy feel.

I have been so happy to see Melanie of Earthenwood Studio making new pieces. She has these awesome new vintage inspired illustrative pendants. Stop by her shop to see all her new work!

White Swan Studio has these beautiful bees in her shop, I love the shabby chic look of them. I really need one of these!

Here is one from my shop, Humblebeads. Match up your bee pendants with flower beads for a instant garden.

I love the playful quality of this set of honeybees and a skep from JunqueJules.  

Andrew Thornton has recently launched a new Etsy shop for his bead store, Allegory Gallery. The Etsy shop is filled with Andrew's polymer clay pendants and lots of goodies to go with them. 

Rowan Song Crafts created this pendant that just makes me smile! Such a happy little bee!
