Can anyone identify a 6x8 beaded tapestry? This is a Spanish scene on a felt type background. The beads seem to be individually glued on.

@Loyanne,
What do you mean "identify". You have not given us anything to "identify". Do you mean you want to know a maker or how old it is? From your description I would say it's an old schmata from a thrift shop. I think your first clue of value is the beads are not hand sewn. Glue screams cheap tourist trinket. Photos are really helpful in these situations. No photo, no help.

@Loyanne,
In Photobucket, there are options for forums posting. The code generally looks something like this:
Code:[img]image url[/img]
. Copy and paste all of that (including the IMG parts) into a post here. Hit preview to make sure it's right and voila!

@Loyanne,
I admire your persistence, Loyanne. The piece is certainly mid-late 20th century (probably 1960's) and made for the home decorating market. Value @ $5-$20.
