Chaos & Order Day 12

Remember the large wall piece of beading I started back January?  Well, it's done, but before I show you nice photos of the finished piece, I'm giving you a teaser.  This was Day 12.
Last time, I showed you a close-up, so today I'll give you the big picture. Here is my workspace.  It's a mess. Whenever I work on large projects, it gets messy. It's a waste of time to keep things too tidy.  I have used more than 50 different kinds of beads in this piece, and although I keep thinking I will organize all of those boxes by color, I haven't. I'll organize myself later. I think 2013 will be my year. That gives me almost 11 months to procrastinate.

Stay tuned, because tomorrow I'll show you photos of the finished piece.

Bead & Button Show 2012

We made it to the Bead & Button Show this year, and I thought I'd share some photos with you.  Here are Florence Turnour and me a "Meet the Teachers" right before it started at our sales table.  This was our first show, so you can see how excited we were.
And here we are with Cindy Holsclaw who was at the table right next to us.
Florence and I successfully taught two classes, and we have leftover kits available for sale on our website.  This is one of the kits for the Rivoli Urchin Necklace.
This is one of the kits for the Infinity Ubercube & Other Beaded Cubes.  Check out the links to see all of the kit colors we have available.  Thanks for looking.
