Swap N Hop Beads have Arrived !!

Went to get my mail today and in my post box was the bead package from my bead partner Lori Schneider of beadaddicted.blogspot.com !!  Wow  what a lot of beads and findings.

I love them all  and my favorite colour of turquoise.. just happens to be my birthstone as well.

I can see that I have my work cut out for me !!

Hop N Swap beads have Arrived !!

Here's a collage of some of the pieces I sent to my partner Lori.. she received the package yesterday..  I cannot believe how fast they got to the Boston area!!

Basically I made everything pictured above except the blue vintage beads !! All the lampwork, copper wire, forged copper pipe, clasps and the pendant hangers (for the lampwork bead dangles)
I am going to put some of my glass beads up on my Etsy site...

Beads on their Way

My beads are on their WAY... mailed them last Thursday

Here's a little peak at the beads I sent.  Hopefully they won't take too long to get to their destination.... near Boston...All the way clear across the continent. !!  I live in a town of about 150,000.  All of our mail has to go to Vancouver and then on it's way to the final destination..

Beads to Go

Getting ready to send my beads to my bead partner.. they are just in the kiln now.  Will be ready to take out after they cool down !! I know I have till  March 15  but I am a bit of a procrastinator when it comes to doing things so hopefully will get them out a few days early !!
