Awesome! Hope we can all check out each others' blogs and find new blogs in the process!
On an unrelated note, I finished Yelping about the bead stores I visited in Baltimore and Chicago. In case you are new to Yelp, it's an online community that reviews everything from stores to restaurants to doctors to hotels, you get the picture. I have really found a fun and funky community there and was asked to be an Elite member earlier this year. Dig that, too! (If you are on Yelp, holler at a sister, I love reading others' reviews!).
Beading clearly makes me happy :) Here I am in front of "Happy Beadium" in Chicago (and yes I am aware that I am wearing clashing colors!). I had hoped to get pictures in front of every shop we visited, but got so caught up in the moment that I forgot!
That said, I plan to bead for the majority of the weekend and have lots of new things to post next week. I had hoped to finish more items this week, but I ended up selling several items I WORE TO WORK to some co-workers (they had to force me not to just hand them the items right off of my neck!) and spent my evenings filling their orders (while watching So You Think You Can Dance, of course). The only thing that might get in my way is that my parents are arriving tomorrow for a 3 week (yes, that's 21 days) visit. Riiiiiiight. So I might not get much work done after all. Fingers crossed.
Here's to a great weekend!
Hello! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! You are so kind, my dear! I'm all flushed in the face - you flatter me so. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!! I just love that picture, I bet that bead store was GREAT!! The smiley face is so perfect!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! That is such a fun picture! Hope you have a great visit with your parents. Oh yea...I LOVE So You Think You Can Dance too (probably because I'm highly uncoordinated and love to watch people who have it goin' on in that department! :> )!!
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks! I'll be sure to pass it along!
