Where have I been & New Beads...

Hi all, again two weeks & no blog post from me...what is up with that? well I have just been busy with other things in life...Thinking about all kinds of things like how smart is the idea of trying to become a mom at this stage in my life...? even though I ask this question of myself often, I am very excited about trying to have a baby, I think hubby & I will be good parents. I know we will try to be anyway...but first we have to get pregnant & have a baby...so we are still a long ways away from parenting...

I did make a ton of beads the last couple of weeks, I just started to list them in my etsy shop, so there are all kinds of new beads. Stop by & take a look...let me know what you think...

You still have a few days to enter the Beauty Contest...I am loving all the goodies so far...you can enter items made with my beads no matter how long ago you got the beads...

I have also been getting ready for my Silver Class & Glass Ornament class this coming weekend...there is 4 spaces in the Silver class & 2 left in the Ornament class, send Grace an email if you are interested...

Melissa M. wins the bead in my last post...enter to win this week's yummy bead by making a comment on this post...

Thanks so much for stopping by...Life is good...
