I’m so glad to hear that I am not the only one who loves to bead!!! I am the only one in my area that uses seed beads to embroider gorgeous evening bags that were used for local proms last year!!! That has evolved to making totes and even sports team totes and purses!!!! The younger set is where I found my sales last year, but everyone who sees them oohs and awes, but I can,t seem to enjoy any success with the over 17 to 40 crowd!!! I love hearing about everyones projects and what their passions for their craft are11 thanks for an inspirational site!!!!!!!

Thanks Anne! My passion has turned from beadwork to making found object jewelry. I love the challenges that presents.
But I still have about 40lbs of seedbeads LOL, I’m sure I’ll pick up a needle and start beading again one day!

Hey! Imagine my delight to “google” myself this morning (a once-in-a-while morning coffee pastime), and find your site with a link to my blog and picture of “Money Madness.” WOW! Thanks! Only thing is, the link didn’t work… If you’d like to read about the pictured piece, try this link: http://beadlust.blogspot.com/2007/10/beading-for-change-bjp-augusts-page.html Sorry you don’t have time to bead anymore… but thanks for the site!

Hit send to soon. I should mention that I can’t keep up with my own blog since I’m too busy beading. So on that note I guess I’m glad that you were able to give up beading because we get to read your blog more often that way.

You don’t do beadwork anymore? Is such a thing even possible? If a day ever went by that I didn’t pickup a bead or two I would cease to exist.
