Murrini Monday ~ I Can See It In Your Eyes

When I find two slices of murrini that are nearly identical, I think owl eyes! And I immediately set those pieces aside while I figure out what colors to make my next owl. I especially like the Lori and Kim murrini with a round middle and little lines that spread out from the middle to the perimeter. These are my favorite murrini for owl eyes.

I LOVE the eyes on this owl! The murrini came in a "thank you" pack in one of my many Lori and Kim orders. I think maybe Lori put two of them in there on purpose? Unfortunately, there's a small fracture in the owl's body (boohoo!), so now he's busy guarding the underside of my computer and I get to look into his eyes every time I log on.

This owl's eyes are nice and dramatic, just the way I like them. I think they're putting me into a trance.

I have to find slightly smaller murrini for pandora-style owl eyes, and these deep red ones definitely do the trick.

I already have my next pair of owl eyes picked out. They are orange, and I'm thinking about a Halloween hootie.

Happy Murrini Monday!

Murrini Monday

I took a couple weeks off from Murrini Mondays, and also from blogging. It wasn't on purpose, it just happened. So let's not waste any more time - let's see some murrini!

I'm having a lot of fun putting murrini on the tops of turtle shells. This one is a really cool piece from lori and kim that I think has silver in it - I love it how it spreads out over the shell. I did not put clear over this murrini.

These mini turtles remind me of candy, like Lori's Candy Jacks beads. I topped each of these murrini slices with clear for a magnifying effect.

Plummi the elephant has found a perfect slice of murrini and she is not letting go. Not even for a peanut.

This murrini works well as decoration on a mushroom.

Dinosaurs like murrini, too! This one is sporting a gorgeous sunny slice to match his sunny personality.

All of the murrini in this week's edition of Murrini Monday is from lori and kim.

Happy Murrini Monday!

Murrini Monday

I skipped Murrini Monday last week because I had my giveaway going, so now it's baaaack!

Here we have a pug in a cozy spring sweatshirt, complete with a smiley face murrini. I'm so happy Lori and Kim made these! I have a few left and can't wait to dress other beadimals in happy face shirts.

Next up is a spring snake with a flower murrini tail, and and a white bunny with an decorated Easter egg murrini. The poor purple snake didn't get a murrini, and he looks pretty upset about it.

This purple bunny snagged a sweet Easter egg murrini, and she is not letting go.

Finally, here is a penguin with a fun sunburst murrini on his belly. I think even he is ready for spring. :)

All of the murrini in this post is from Lori and Kim. They try to post their new murrini on the 1st and the 15th of every month, so be sure to mark your calendars so you can get in on the new designs before they are gone! Ok, before I buy them all.

Happy Murrini Monday!
