Well, the shipment I ordered from Beads in Bulk came yesterday. My son opened the box today to start sorting the colors. They were as beautiful as I had hoped. I ordered mostly green, purple, and blue. Orange has been a hard color to come by, but I was able to order at least one bag. Yellow is proving to be rather elusive, also. We will have to see if I need more.
One place I was able to get a few more of the yellow and orange beads was at Joanne Fabrics. Luckily, I was given some very generous gift cards for my birthday that I had not yet used. There were some reds variety packs that also caught my eye. The red section beads I had been using were starting all to look the same, so these will help break up the monotony.
The weather was cold again today, but at least we didn't have thunderstorms like yesterday. I can usually work for an hour to an hour and half in weather like this before my hands become too cold and I need to go inside. Today I got about 2.5 hours worth of work done. Not sure if I am going to be able to meet my goal of finishing the red section by tomorrow, but we shall see.
On another note, I posted to Art Bead Scene Blog for the first time today. I love this Blog because of all the interesting bead artists that are a part of it. They were looking for designers and bead artist that would be willing collaborate. This sounded like a very interesting opportunity. I really hope that it works out.
Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!
In Beads and Happiness,
