I placed my order on Saturday night for my bead loom and a ton of beads for other projects. It actually arrived today while I was out running errands! I can't wait to get started on it. Bad news is I have to wait until I get this parade stuff out of my hair. I am up to my eyeballs in entry forms and other stuff, including 4 Wheatens to groom for their part in the parade. We have about 30 of them in our group this year.
But I am taking a break and doing a necklace with a SS Claddagh connector, tree agate, SS spacers and a SS celtic clasp. I have it laid out right now on my bead board and it looks nice. It will be a little over 18".
I am going to have a problem with the necklace my granddaughter picked out. She picked SS heart shaped alphabet beads. When they arrived I noticed the hole was large and towards the top. The rest of the beads are silver saucers and 4mm sodalite. I tried a few on a string and the hearts don't hang right. I don't know how to get around this.
Well, back to work, if you can call this work. I am loving it. So relaxing after all the craziness of this season! jan
