AWESOME GIFT BRACELET

This bracelet was a surprise gift from a lady that buys beads from me.  I told her I was going to post on my blog because I thought it was really cool.  The best part, all you beaders, is this was totally unexpected.  As beaders we sometimes loose focus on the fact that beadwork is just plain beautiful.  If you, like me, read the bead magazines (a/k/a Beading Bibles), you sometimes feel your work doesn't match up.  They have amazing stuff in those magazines, but you put your heart into your work, so when you give it to someone that goes with it.  Over the holidays think about sending someone something you have made.  Better yet, do it before the holidays or after when it is least expected.   Beading is a beautiful way to say things what words don't.  I thank this woman again for her gift!!!

UPDATE

A request was made for the Russian Spiral on a weekend....anyone interested before the holidays?

Also, there was interest for teaching this on Thursday, December 1 at 10:30 am.  If interested in this, contact me to book space.  Any needs for quick projects for holiday gifts?

Where Have I Been?

Geez, I have been pathetic!  So much going on.  I will have a few new posts tomorrow or the next day.  Stay tuned.


Please post or email what classes you want to prepare for the holidays?  We have a Russian Spiral class tomorrow night...Wednesday, November 30 at 7:00.  


I am working on a few pieces to send to the art gallery in Hood River, Oregon.  The art show is themed "Trash to Treasure".  Anyone got any really cool ideas?  I will post what I have finished in a few days.  Would like opinions.  This is harder than I thought.
