There she goes . . . .

After serious deliberation (and discussion with Pam and the Beadalicious Beaders), I've decided to jump into the blog pool. Here I go, hold the nose, close the eyes, and . . . . . JUMP!

Yesterday (Saturday) Pam and I went to the San Antonio Bead Market, which had a rather nice showing. It was too crowded for me as a shopper, but as a vendor, it was a great deal. I schmoozed with a few folks I don't see regularly anymore. I looked at all the pretty beads, and even touched a few. And now I have my eye on some Dark Red AB 2X Swarovski bicones, thanks to Laurie at Mica Beads & Jewelry. And I would post a link, but alas, Laurie does not yet have a web site. We did look for Heather, but our time was limited and we must have just missed her.

All in all, it was a good day. There was no rain, as long as we weren't going to the outlet malls (for the tax free weekend), traffic wasn't bad, I got to schmooze and window shop, but best of all I got to spend some time with Pam, which we don't have the opportunity to do very often.

So, there you go -- first blog. And I'm sure there will be many more to follow.

Oh -- lest I forget, the cute little tag over there is compliments of Siggie Plus.

I, too, went to the bead market. It was very crowded, partly some spillover from the kids' clothes sale next door. It is always a fun to see people and say hello to them. I'm sorry we missed you, but we still had serious shopping to do. Took my beloved Auntie (Tia Carolyn) to SAS to find comfy shoes.
I may have to make another flower with even different colors! I just need to run onto more 10 mm beads.
