Rainbow beads

In these dark and desperate times, my gran daughter Sophie's rainbow beads add a bit of cheer.

Rainbow beads

She's only six years old and has started on bead stringing projects

Addictive handicraft for Sophie

and this colorful bracelet is one of her creations.

Sophie's rainbow bracelet

These beads are very versatile and can be twisted to form different shapes and identities.

Lo and behold its a unicorn 😉

It can also decorate the wrist

Sits snugly on the wrist

Another attempt at  bracelet making

Cute charm bracelet

And the present that started it all.

A box of children's beads

This post began with rainbow beads and to conclude I present a rainbow in the sky to dispel gloom and doom. 😇

Rainbow in the sky symbolises hope.

A Rainbow in the Sky

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety. by william wordsworth.

Thanks A. for sending me this Rainbow of Hope It is indeed a beautiful work of nature and I am glad to use it to mark new beginings and old endings to my blog. Thanks too to WW for this unforgettable verse to lighten up my quiet Musings.

Look out for more frolic with jade, manao, crystal, turquoise. glass, braids, knots, beads, hairpins, animals and other little wonders.........
