A few bee images for you !


I know they can sting you, and that can really be quite scary for some but don't you just love their images? They seem to represent a naturalness or sweet fragrant spring to me ~ Have you been thinking a little of spring? :)
MaryJanes Farm magazine has a new issue out, I saw it the other day and they are featuring bees and the benefits they give us ~ I need to pick mine up next time I'm at the store.....

Please feel free to use these.....wouldn't the bee be beautiful on the cover of a handmade card?



Wishing you a bee-utiful Thursday sweet friends ~ ugh....that's so lame.....


xxoo, Dawn

I like bee things too, Dawn. I use the beehive icon in my paintings a lot. It's been iconic throughout history in art, like the pomegranate.
I like those too!
Thank you for sharing the pictures.
I'm sure I'll be using them!

Dawn,
I have been visiting your blog for a while now, and I see you have shared many images such as the bees images. But for the life of me, i don't know what to do with them, other than copy and move to "my pictures"!!! What does one DO with the images? Do you just make a copy of it and cut it out and put it on a notecard? Do you have tutorials concerning these? Other blog entries where you have shared different ideas?
These may sound like silly questions, but to the novice like me, I don't know who better to ask than the person who is sharing such sweet images!
Thanks,
Cindy

"Bee happy", "Bee thankful", "Bee my valentine", "To bee, or not to bee"! Okay . . . someone stop me!!

"To make a prairie it takes a clover and one bee,
One clover, and a bee.
And revery.
The revery alone will do,
If bees are few."

by Emily Dickinson

Couldn't resist adding this. Isn't it sweet!

I used to raise bees back in the day. It was a good feeling knowing you were a part of something bigger. Sadly, I have hardly any bees at the chateau. Someday I'm gonna get me another hive, I miss them so much.

Cool post!

Hugs friend...sharon

Dawn- we just did a whole display with bees at the Plum Tree yesterday. That's so odd. But bees and Spring go together like nothing else. Most everything we eat is because a little bee pollinated it- hard to imagine their wonder. That's one reason I don't use pesticides in the garden- there are many others. Thank you.

I've liked bees for what ever reason since I was in the 5th grade. My girl friend and I used to trap them in mason jars. We liked to live dangerously.

Now that I'm some what grown up I find I still have a fasination with these little bug-ers.

Catherine Moore has a new line of stamps "Bird and Bee Paperie"

ANs My friend Debra Abel's lastname means bee. I some pages in her Art Journal using a bee theme. You can see it on my blog.

Seems I just can't shake them loose. ;)

Sorry for being so verbose. But long story short thanks for sharing these images.

Thanks for those images ~ I love honeybees. I have that issue of MJ'sF and I love it. It inspires me to want my own honeybees. While my corn was maturing last summer, each day I would go out and find 1,000's of bees on the tassles. It was pretty amazing. I have one pic here http://tinkerverve.wordpress.com/2008/08/08/were-a-little-corny/ - There's just something about the awesomeness of nature that can be so inspiring.
