After looking at the picture in my last blog entry, you might be wondering how I came to possess so many beads. Well, I’ll tell you! They came from all over:
*The bead store!
*Bead catalogs and the Internet
*Leather, Native American, craft, Tibet, and second-hand stores
*Gem and bead shows
*Old broken necklaces
*Donations from friends who are cleaning out their jewelry boxes
*Garage sales
*Sidewalk finds
*The beach and woods (shells, rocks, seeds and sticks can be drilled to make beads)
*My own making (from clay, plastic scraps, etc)
