Time flies!




I can't believe how time gets away from me so quickly. It's been over 2 months since I've updated my blog. Just doesn't seem possible that it's been so long! I promise I haven't been idle the entire time! :) I'm posting 2 pics with this entry. The first I finished just minutes ago. The St. Petersburg chain necklace with the beaded bead is "hot off the press"! I was trying to teach myself to do the St Petersburg stitch along with some online instructions, and was failing miserably! A recent Bead & Button magazine had a project and the instructions there finally clicked! I tend to do that with new things sometimes. I have to figure it out my way...and when it clicks, it's like the proverbial light bulb lighting up! This necklace is made with seed beads, and glass pearls. I tried a magnetic clasp to see how I liked these on a necklace. I like the look, now let's see how well it holds!!

The pink necklace and earring were donated to the annual WHHS Dig Pink Volleyball fundraiser. I haven't heard how it went, but it's always a smashing success! The gals raise a lot of money for a good cause! Thank you WHHS Volleyball players!
