this saturday is all about bead soup blog party #6 (and marcel duchamp)

mary jane dodd


most of you probably know what the bsbp is all about, but if you don't, it's worth taking a look at... lori anderson of pretty things is the hostess of this massive event ... participants are paired up, send out sets of beads and components to each other and then make finished pieces... this is rarely as easy as it sounds - which is all a part of lori's plan to help you stretch and leave your comfort zone!

this time there are a record 400 participants from around the globe - and 3 reveal dates... another fun/inspirational part of the hop is that you visit other blogs to see what people have done... the results really can be just so impressive... and you meet people you might not have otherwise... 

lori has a facebook page dedicated to this, a book coming out and no plan to stop (at least to my knowledge!)... 

while i am not participating this time around, i saw that stacie is and today happens to be her reveal day... 

if you haven't done this yet, i really encourage you to give it a try... if you have, or are participating in the current party - please let us know in the comments section!

today is also the 125th anniversary of marcel duchamp's birth - i wrote about his influence a bit here...

I'm participating, with the last reveal date, so I still have a little breathing room, and time to see what everyone else is doing. Such creativity!
