Tomorrow I plan on having small silver cored beads which would work great on our CHARM-N-BEAD BRACELET. I will try to have them up by noon my time.

Red Salmon Egg Beads

Just thought I would share some beads that I just finished for an order. These are some of my salmon egg beads which have been cored with 1/4" silver tubing with hand made pmc caps riveted on them.

Cool Discovery!

We just discovered this new eagle's nest right down the street from us! They had another one last year further away but it had been blown down during a storm. This one is really close but hard to see. We got permission from the people who own the land to go there anytime and watch them and photograph them... so stay tuned for more eagle photos! The pair are in our tree together quite often, but soon one will have to always remain in the nest with the babies. I hope they have several eaglets this year.


Spring is definitely upon us, our crocus are popping up everywhere. The tulips aren't far behind.

Hi Lisa! I grabbed your photos off of ISLAGA's website! Your bead turned out awesome! I so can't wait to see some more of your beads...... send me photos from time to time!

This is the class photo of the third class, including Sharon (studio owner) and Draino the cat! 2 of the students had to leave a bit early to start their treks home.


And here is Lisa working on her Sea Garden.... maybe she will send me a photo of it when she gets it, it was looking really good!

Second Class


This is the second class! One of the students had to leave early..... we missed you Karen!
Shannon, Jenny and Bette stayed and made 3 wonderful sea gardens! I will take some photos of them tomorrow!

This is Barbara behind her mask. She is awesome and a joy to have in class.... oh and by the way she has more glass tools than anyone I know!!!!!

This was waiting for me the second day of class. Sharon, the owner of the studio, made the vase and brought the flower from home for me! It made it feel a little bit like Hawaii.... except for all the snow outside! We are supposed to get some more tonight and tomorrow, which is fine with me, I love it!

I am looking forward to the next class, like I said earlier, this is a great group.
