I like naming things differently each week. Call it a hangover from being a linguist, but I know most bead makers think names are important. In my search for ever new ideas for names, I don't always get it right. Sayings, for example, seem to evoke a more direct response than, say, place names or ...(I know!!!) Vulcan words (I was particularly stuck that week). So, something is definitely in a name. I already picked the category of names for this week, although this week won't be particularly productive. So meet: "Into Temptation". Question is: What will it be next week?Wednesday, 13 May 2009
What's in a name?

Wow love that colour combo the black really makes the pink stand out. I know what you mean about names, I think it is important for my jewellery pieces especially the lampwork ones to have names, but sometimes I get a huge mental block and it can be really hard.

ReplyDeleteHave to agree with Keiara - love the beads...and the name :)
ReplyDeleteThank you all, lol. Unfortunately, I've made so few beads this week, my clever idea of using Crowded House lyrics will go almost entirely unnoticed...ah well :)
