Hey guys! I'm new to this group and new to google groups in general. I actually had no idea they even had groups!!
Let's see, a bit about myself. I'm a mama to two boys, age 3 and 1. I work from home part time for a local software company, and due to medical issues mostly, my fiance and I started doing some beading on the side for a bit of extra money. I admit I thought it was going to be a lot easier than it really is, but I LOVE it. I don't even care about how easy it is anymore, I'm having too much fun! hehe. :) You can see some examples of our work here:

and I also posted new work at my livejournal here:

(I didn't think the pictures were quite good enough to post on etsy yet). I'm definitely interested in learning new techniques. I find myself paging through the Fire Mountain gems catalog and wondering "how did they do THAT?" when I see certain pieces of jewelry. It'd also be nice to talk to others who do beading as a business, as well (though I'm not sure if this list is for that kind of thing). anyway, if you have any questions about me, just ask! :)Thanks and I look forward to lots of beading discussions!!! :)
