for Spring!!!! Winter is about mid-way but I have been tired of it since it started. Blech. I am most definitely not a cold weather person. Everything is so drab and barren - the trees are naked and the wind howls icy mists. It has been raining, off and on, for a week now and if it were just a smidgen colder we would have lots of snow - so sparkling and pristine in the morning sun but ugly, dirty black after a day, and oh! what joy to shovel. More blech, with a good dash of ick.
So what I like to do is lose myself in my beads - I spread their bright and cheerful colors out on my bed, crank up the ipod and make bead sets and bracelets, all with spring in mind. But it's hard sometimes as my motivation tends to shine or dim with the weather - sunny days see me anxious to mix and match, whereas gray days usually find me unwilling to get out from under my snug and cozy covers.
But I did have a few hours of sun for exactly 1/2 day last week, and I did get myself bead busy. I haven't made many sets yet, but I tried to make at least 1 in each color. These sets are different from what I usually offer - they have less lampwork and more bling - 7 beads in all, 2 more beads than ususal. I have tried to keep them affordable, but they will be a little more pricey because the bling type beads cost more and as stated, there are 2 more beads in the set. And actually, if you already have a bracelet, these sets are nice enough to make a new bracelet without adding any extra beads, unless, of course, you want to.
So, here's a preview of what's coming. Enjoy, and Happy Shopping!!
