Mingling Sparkles and Inspiration!


I don't think it is a surprise to anyone that I love Swarovski Crystal Elements, is it??? 
Ok, so I LOVE them in a big way! 

So to have the opportunity to head east and be able to spend time with my fellow ambassadors at the North American Headquarters for some training and sparkle time, well count me in!!!!  YIPPEEE~~  I always love heading to Tucson each year to see all of these amazingly talented designers that I both adore and admire so to get the opportunity to see everyone twice in one year, just pinch me!!

Jamie North & June Beach
So looking forward to seeing all of the new innovations and sparkles.....promise to share what I can here but will definitely share the fun & the friendship that comes through in all that we do. 

The Amazing Diane Whiting, Brenda Schweder and Sandro Lupo!
Going to be so much fun!  Just to be in the same room with this much talent is pretty serious but everyone is just the most sparkling and wonderful personalities that you could hope to be associated with!  Sparkles to all of them!

 
 Lilian Chen, the amazing Kristal Wick with bunny ears courtsey of the fabulous Laura Timmons and June


Thought this bracelet that I made full of sparkling Swarovski  Elements says it all in tems of being with all of these wonderful designers......inspiring!  Isn't that just the way it should be?  Oh course!

Designed by June Beach

Wishing you a most sparkling and Inspiring day!!

CHA & CHA Super Show- Chicago

I love Chicago!  So when asked to go there to do some make & take's at Craft and Hobbby Associations Super Show in Chicago, well, I was happy to go.  Getting to see all the crafty goodness everywhere, meeingt new friends, talking with old friends, well, it doesn't get much better than that, does it?  So here a small peek into CHA.........

Don't you love inspired looks?  This one was pretty great at the I Love To Create booth!  Love the feathers!!! Quite a sassy look, don't you think?  Great inspiration for many things!
A few other things that I fell in love with at the show......I love handbags and aren't these just the cutest?  What fun to create you own inspired style?  I am inspired to try a few myself, what about you??

So much inspiration everywhere as well! I love how there really aren't many rules now so you can go, mix it up & create so many new, dynamic accessories, clothing, papercrafts, home decor and more!

Don't you love when you run into the Crafting Celebrities at CHA and CHA SuperShow?  I do, so it was fun to see when I was starting to do my Make & Take, a gal asked spotted at my table my friend Julie McGuffee for a picture with her.  She told Julie how much her kids love her show as well as her British accent!  Cute, Cute!!  Check Julie's blog out at Life in the Craft Lane, she is fabulous!!!

Ran into Lisa Pavelka at the Viva Decor booths.  What a delight and joy to see her whenever, I get the chance. She is amazing, a woman of so many talents!  The little assistants were so excited over the polymenr clay sock monkey charms that she gave them......now to make them little necklaces! LOL! Seriously,  if you haven't see any of her fabulous products, check them out at her website, lisapavelka.com

  What a great few days it was at the trade show & the SuperShow!

Isn't this just an adorable necklace from one of the booths at CHA? I love it!
So colorful and fun, love the sparkles in the center of the flowers, don't you? Perfect for Summer!

View from the ferris wheel at Navy Pier right before the fireworks started!  What a great way to end CHA & the CHA SuperShow!  Thanks to everyone that came out for my make & takes, it was great to see you!!

Sparkles!

Is there a better way to start a holiday weekend than with the Blue Angels flying over the bay, Cherry Festival about to start, friends, family, cookouts and lots of fabulous fireworks?
I don't think so.........it is the perfect way!
Seeing the Blue Angels is always a highlight for me since I was a little girl and to now be able to share that with our daughters is an absolute delight!!
Cherry Festival in Traverse City, MI is the kickoff and celebration of all that is cherry and for me, not much compares to a fabulous fresh cherry or cherry pie from
the World's Cherry Capital!
Amazing Lake Michigan sunsets, didn't get to see the Northern Lights on this vist but this sunset was pretty amazing....check out the rays.......it was like the Northern Lights but during sunset. Beautiful, the picture still doesn't do it justice!
Fireworks, again who doesn't like those?? The little assistants thought they were pretty fabulous this year as we got to see several great firework shows!!!

Again the pictures don't do the sparkling fireworks shows justice but well, had to share! Then of course at midnight, it was my birthday!! What a great way to start a special day! Friends, family, fireworks, cherry pie, amazing sunsets, sunny days on the beach......equals a perfect holiday weekend.
Hope you had a sparkling weekend as well !!!

God Bless the USA!

Spring Inspiration

Hi everyone! Been a little remiss lately in posting but that is all about to change! Lots happening around the Beach Haus Studio's so will be sharing bits & pieces of it in the coming weeks.......

Spring has definitely sprung down south! Recently, we got to visit the cutest little town called Gruene, TX. Adorable mills, right on the river (not far from San Antonio) and fabulous little shops full of all kinds of great gifts, clothes and baubles!I just loved this Ice Cream sign.......how can you not? We love ice cream in the Beach Household and the old charm of this sign made me stop and snap a picture or two! Yummmm. The Country Fresh Egg sign was a favorite as well.
Funny, I have learned through the years that you never know where inspiration is going strike and what beautiful intesting designs that you can come up just by getting out and about, taking your camera with you and just soak up all of the simple charms that surround all of us each day. Try it, you might be surprised at what you see that you didn't see before, colors, textures, layers and so much more.
Just wanted to share a few of my Bluebonnet pictures. I love Bluebonnets, no only because they are the Texas state flower but they are so happy and the blues just pop right out and grab you as you are passing them. They make me smile and inspire me!
Enjoy your day and go out and get inspired!!!

Sparkles!

Some pieces that I am truly chomping at the bits to get my hands on and create some new sparkling jewelry.....very exciting and very innovative! Looking forward to sharing more info in the near future. Their trend presentations are really like no other! Each piece is truly a piece of art......be still my sparkling heart!


Got to spend some time with all of my fellow ambassadors and I can truly say that I although I have found such kinship in some like Jamie North (love my Canadian friend and truly the best!) , Laura Timmons (talented, fashionable and a good Texas girl at heart...what is not to love!), Diane Whiting(my talented sparkle sister), Kristal Wick (just the cutest and yet amazingly, super talented), Linda Hartung ( this lady is so down to earth, amazing and gracious that I am in awe) ,
