I thought I would like the beading thing. I really did. I bought quality sterling toggle clasps, and gemstone beads, and good wire, and all the accoutrements,...however, it just never "took", ya know? Of course you don't, because YOU are a beader, who wants my stash!!! YOU are a beader who is thinking ahead and planning for one of a kind Christmas gifts.
YOU may have it all, accoutrements, and even the lovely box in which they are compartmentalized to be oh-so organized and straight. I cannot guarantee that it will be so "straight" after Mr. Postman gets to it....
From what I saw there last night, here is a brief description of some of what's in there:
lapis lazuli beads
labradorite beads
rose quartz star shaped beads
a strand of really cool garnet stone beads that are cut in neat organic shapes and sizes
shell beads (gray type iridescent and bone colored as well, oval shaped)
rust/orange stone beads, maybe carnellion, don't know, just liked the color
funky green quartz
lemon quartz
light lemonade colored stone beads--really pretty, and looks great with turquoise colors.
sterling spacers/various shapes.
sterling toggle clasps, and lobster clasps.
There are more beads, but I can't think here at the office. If you'd like to know more or see a photo, just email me at lilyj7303@yahoo.com...
I am interested in trading for:
natural fiber yarns (from your animals, perhaps *hint*hint*)
food products from your farm (honeys, jams, salsas, etc...)
homemade laundry soaps or cleaning products that you make to sell.
I love body soaps, but I have more soap in my house than I can take a bath or shower with at the moment, thanks to all the farmgirls who make such great products!!!

The upside to all this is that beads are way smaller and take up way less "available stash space" than the skeins of yarn Jonni wants in return!! So, when my husband does the "visual scan" of "Kathy's Room", there will be noticeably less yarn stash. A Win/Win trade!!

Hey Kathy, just wanted you to know the package was mailed yesterday around 2:50 in the afternoon. Please let me know it gets to you in good order, and how you like the beads.
