May beaded rock

Here is my May beaded rock. I had made a rainbow beaded rock for my daughter for Christmas this last year. I really liked it so I decided to make another one for myself. This one reminds me of a clam.

I am also including a photo of the back of this rock because sometimes people just are wondering. The shape of where the beads are placed around the bottom are where the rock actually sits on a flat surface. I am thinking that maybe I should put felt on the bottom here.

And.....I decided that while I had all the beads laid out I might as well make a couple of them for gifts for next year. Or maybe I'll do a blog give away with one of them? So I've been busy this month. And yes, sometimes I'm a little bit of an over achiever, but only because I really liked the rainbow theme on these rocks.

I also made a couple of refrigerator magnets for myself. They turned out OK. Not overly exciting. They are just some wood pieces with a magnet on the back. Not sure I will make any more.
