Sometimes you just got to say Start Over.

I have been beading, just not writing like I should be doing. I updated against all my better judgement to the new operating system for my iPhone. It is fine but it has taken a day to get the way I want it, plus it no longer works with my old Bose that I use pretty much all the time with Spotify. So much for that at the moment but I am hoping to think of a plan B. Back to beading...some of the older beads I got on eBay are so cool I didn't want to complicate their design too much so I went for simple. I just love the little floral design of the beads. Not flashy but sweet in its own way. I took bracelet The more I looked at it, I swear it looked like it had dreadlocks. The proportions where all wrong. So here is its new life. Needs some time taken to fix one bad start...still not good at starting, stopping and adding new thread. Still a bit shaggy but I am continuing to work on the stretch part for ease of getting on and off. I have been looking at a lot of YouTube videos. Fun to see the different styles and intensity of the instructors. I am not out to make money on my beading just to maybe make enough to keep feeding my habit. Enjoy your day and Happy reading or beading.

  1. That's very pretty! What fun. Best tip I can offer you is to get a few good tools. The right round tip pliars can make things so much easier. And flat ones for crimping. I wasted a lot of time trying to do things with the wrong tools. It's nice you're having so much fun!

  2. Thanks for your comment (: I am having fun most of the time. You are right, I have not invested in high end tools until I prove that this is a committed addiction.
