Bead Journal Project: October

Each month, I’m choosing a fragment of scripture from one of the Psalms and using a heart shape to create a little 4 x 4 inch beaded piece that illustrates the feeling of that verse for me. Here is my piece for October:

Psalm 16:11
In Your presence is fullness of joy.
The symbol here is joy that is so tightly coiled within that it just has to burst forth.

I love this. What a great way to display your favorite passage. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Susan
By this time next year, I should have 12 of my favorite passages all mounted together!
I think your October page fully shows the fullness of joy. I love what you’re doing and look forward to seeing all your pieces!
Thank you Sam!
I think the coils are a great symbol. Your colors also shout joy. It’s a happy page. You did a great job.
Thanks Timaree! Sometimes it takes me longer to pick the passage and the symbols than it does to make the page itself
Very nice. I like your choice of colors for this theme.

Thank you, Marty! Sept, Oct, and Nov will all be on the purple background.
What a grand idea you have for this year!!! Both Sept. and Oct. are fabulous visual representations of the psalms you selected… They make me feel happy and peaceful at the same time. Thank you!
Robin, I’m so glad you like them! Thank you, and thank you for heading up this project again
Such a pretty page! They are going to look great when all done and together…
What a great theme, so joyful and just the right amount of beading to convey the feeling.
This is very lovely . . .

Thank you, guys! Working simple has been such a joy, no pun intended!
I can see the joy just pulsing to get out. I hope this is how you feel. Wonderful choice of colors, too.
