AD: Violet Pools/Silver Sands set ends today

Hi all - just a reminder that this silver plum set ends today.

I've spent the last few days helping my friend label all the glass (300

  • lbs.) and tools she's received for her store - that's been fun, but no beadmaking for me so far this week. I've got a talk on bead-making as therapy at the end of the week which is the next thing I need to finish this week. I'm quite excited about this talk, as it is to occupational therapy students and practitioners, helping me organize my thinking about how I connect my previous and well-loved role as a therapist with my new role as artist.

Your talk about bead making as therapy is very interesting and right on point. It's so meditative. When I'm making beads nothing else is going on around me. It is so quiet in the house as I'm absorbed into whatever colors and designs I'm pursuing at the moment. It's total bliss.

It's quite amazing how great I feel when I'm making beads. I've been almost afraid in a way up until now to analyze why, but I'm really starting to get into it. It may end up what I do for my dissertation research for my "stalled-when-we-moved" PhD. If so, I'll be here asking if anyone wants to be part of the study.

Those are both so cool. (The silver plum set is too)

Thanks Soozer - I even went and pulled some articles in prepping for this talk. I was surprised at how very, very good it felt to hang out in the health sciences library after 3 years away. Maybe I AM ready to go back to PhD work. As long as I can link it to beads :-)

Give Merc a pat from me!
