My blogging posts and photos are part of me . I think of this as a scrapbook of my life. The names have not been changed.. they are real people who have crossed my path along my journey. Some I know intimately, my family and friends. If their names are mentioned it's a sure sign they are special to me and I love them dearly...come along see for yourself, perhaps you know some of them too..

It started with just one....

My sister fromArizona came to visit and brought with her a few of her latest creations. I Loved them and she  talked me into trying my hand at beading my own.  After finding a couple Bead stores here in Klamath Falls,
We gathered a few beads and needles and thread.. Well as you can see  a few turned into a LOT of glass seed beads.. and now I am hooked. I know where my extra pennies are going to be spent...
  The aqua one on the left is one she made and I made the lavendar one . Also the smaller Russian Spiral purple. * this was my first project*  Shown  by itself also...Now I have completed an aqua Spiral and a rust & gold one. I need to have her show me again how to connect the clasps... I will see her this next week when I go to Washington to my Moms house. Clay will be crabbing with a friend  while we entertain ourselves at beading..  The last picture is of the Bracelet I want to make next..  My Arthritis or carpel tunel in my wrist has flared a bit so I have taken a few days off... hopefully I will be able to make another  this week... I am Hooked!

I have had requests to make some to sell and if my hands will allow it. I will try to accommodate those requests.  Don't you think they are pretty? Now I must stay away from the bead store for awhile.. I plan to go to a great bead store in Washington on my way to mom's called "Shipwreck Beads."  Oh!  my husband is gonna love hearing this.....  Well, I need some more clasps & a few different  shaped beads to do the next project....  Stay tuned... for how that turns out..
