I adore this bracelet. Really adore it. It’s so soft and slinky and sexy on the wrist. I still have the clasp to add, and there will be optional Czech firepolish on loops on the outside edge to match the description I have of the inspiration piece.… Read More
Progress being made
Stand back! Actual project progress is being made here. You may be in danger of getting hit by a flying crystal or an out of control needle. Use caution.
Mom has been finishing a number of necklaces lately. Is she trying to show me up?… Read More
Friday Eyecandy
I’ve been so remiss in posting this week – it’s been one of those weeks where not a lot that seems post-worthy has been going on. Mom’s been working instead of recovering from surgery – bah. I had a dermatologist appointment and now have a small hole in my forehead after the removal of a stupid spot.… Read More
Friday’s Random Bits
- A favorite moment of last weekend’s Saturday class – Kathryn pulling out a bracelet from my display case and inquiring, “why don’t you teach this??” Um, Kath? You made that bracelet. In Rebecca’s class, and it was too big for you, so you gifted it to me.
Best laid plans
First off, what a great weekend we had! I taught classes on Saturday and Sunday afternoons, and it was one of those times when you laugh so much your face hurts. My dear sister of the heart, Kathryn, was feeling well enough to attend which made me thrilled beyond belief.… Read More

Almost there
I had a great day’s drive Tuesday. Lots of energy, no rest stop naps required. I listened to my book on CD most of the way, and a new music CD the rest of the time. And after today’s miles, I get to love on my very own fur babies!… Read More
Workin’ my way south again…
The show is all over for the year now. I’m following everyone’s travels home via Facebook – although most of those folks are already in their own beds! Flying is for cheaters. Real beaders drive. LOL!
I haven’t yet talked about my booth neighbor, Dolly Ahles.… Read More
Wait…last day? Really?
This show is such a good news/bad news kinda thing. The good news is you’ll be surrounded by happy beady people, the best of the best in beads and inspiration, and you’ll acquire amazingly cool things. The bad news is that you’ll be physically exhausted most of the time, you’ll lack sleep, your voice will go out by the end of each day, and when it’s all over, you’ll be SO SAD!… Read More
The view from Milwaukee
It’s like Christmas in June. It’s a time when all the best beaders in the country converge on the unlikely location of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and we reunite as the chosen family we are. People I only get to see once or twice a year, but yet are vitally important in my world.… Read More
