We'e been busy, honest.

Well, it has been a whirlwind couple of weeks since the last time one of us posted. I sold the roses and have an order for a long sweater coat in the works and Mandy has been whipping out items left and right. I have started making jewelry too.

I have only been working with beads for about 2 weeks now and already have 16 pairs of earrings, 17 bracelets, and 2 necklaces done. I am using all sorts of components for my jewelry. Acrylic and glass beads, wire and stretchy line for the base and all sorts of different clasps to tie them all together. I am now working on a way to have them all have the option for sets. Such as if you like the earrings, you can also buy the necklace and bracelet to go with it in the same color scheme. It's really fun and I am really enjoying doing the sets. I hope to have enough in the next couple of weeks to have enough to display at our local flea market again.

I haven't been back to the flea market since the Crafts Fair, but I'm hoping now that the snowbirds have flocked, and the locals are out more, more of our items will sell. I will definitely post when I will purchase the table and for what weekend, so those of you in the Central Florida area can come by and see me.

Until then,
"Be"ad happy and keep stitching!
