:::::Kate::::: - Beads are addictive: "I was talking into going to a beading class. I think I'm now officially addicted. I figure if I can go to one class and end up dreaming of beads and all the things I can do with them, I guess that's a sign I'm getting obsessive.
On the plus sign, after getting comments from everyone who saw my very first pair of earrings, I could start selling them, and in terms of income, it makes perfect sense. The cost of putting a pair of earrings together is less than $1, and I can easily sell them for $5 a pair. I've also learned to make charm bracelets and necklaces and all sorts of professional looking things. I had had ideas of perhaps selling some of my knitting, but selling jewellery looks like it can be much more lucrative. So I might see what happens. Even if I don't sell them, I have birthday, Christmas and just-because presents for people that can be unique and yet not cost me a fortune - depending of course on what sort of beads I use."
I love to read posts like this - partially because it's nice to know there's another addicted beader out there, but also because it's great when people can do something they love and get paid for it.

Summer Bouquet Pins
Liz posted this in the forum recently, and it was so gorgeous I had to add it here!
These are her comments:
"Just a way to use up any extra beads you have lying around.
Make a "Summer Bouquet" pin... Ps...Mine sold three hours after it was made."
Even better, she chose my favorite colours!
