I AM ONE LUCKY GIRL

Came home last night to find a package from my blog buddy Doreen of Backyardbeads. These beads are amazing. She needs to share these with the world of Etsy. I can't wait to make gorgeous jewelry out of them. Going to make some glass beads to go with them. Will share after I play with them a little longer. They came in this cute box with a metal leaf. A very nice card too. I am one lucky girl. Thank-you Doreen

IT WAS A GREAT TWO WEEKS

We leave for the Bay Area tomorrow. I had a great two weeks that went by way to fast. Got a lot of beads made one day but don't have the energy to put them up on etsy. Hope to get back soon with more designs. I am getting into street show in march hope I feel as good as I did with the first treatment of Chemo. I will read all your blogs I just can't comment on any. I will be back soon.

LAMPWORKER'S MUST HAVE TOOL

HOLD-ME-TIGHT ROD HOLDER from grace@gracefulcustoms.com

This is the greatest tool. Sue remember talking about what to do with small pieces of rods this tool is for you or any other lampworker that reads my blog.

It has a curved saddle so picking up the round glass rods is a breeze. I could work out of my box of shorts for a very long time. Maybe one day just use shorts for a day of beading. Lots of colorful beads will be made.

LOOK WHAT THE BIG BROWN TRUCK BROUGHT ME!

I JUST LOVE THIS BOOK...................

Hello

One chemo down 7 to go..............Feeling great! Great to be home. Going to put some beads up on Etsy before they forget about me. Going to fire up the torch, catch up on some blogs, Just enjoy myself. I have lots of new bracelets and necklaces to show off and get on my web site. I have made tons of earring but I think I will be wearing them when I where my scarfs and hats. I cut my hair short and dyed it red. I thought I would have some fun before it comes out. A bubble bath is waiting for me.
