Bead and Button

new bezels (I did pour resin on them, they felt naked without them) , most sold.

me and Jessica Wiesel at the aquarium


lunch time


annual cheese gathering

Hi! Done with the show! Yay! We can relax and I'm still relaxing. We are in Chicago, enjoying city life with our long time buddy Jeremiah Ketner. We went to the John Shedd Aquarium and walked around town, trying to recharge after such an exhausting event. The show was fantastic! Better every year. So, for eveyone that gave me a comment on my last post, email me and the first three in my inbox will win some new beads. Thanks to everyone for such good marketing ideas!
So we are recuperating and reviving, after all the standing and talking and tornados, which was weird and scary. Folks were held in an extra hour on saturday because there was a tornado alert. Yikes! It was nice catching up with all of our old friends and making new ones, which is half the reason for doing the shows - that and getting new goods from my friends. When I get home, pics of my new finds will be posted.

I was home in Illinois on Saturday and we had all kinds of tornados. That was some scary weather!

Oh, it's nice to see all of the bezel pendants en masse. They are beautiful. I love the Shedd - the beluga whales are my favorite. Have you ever taken Azalea to see Colleen Moore's fairy castle (at the Museum of Science and Industry of all places)? I haven't been there since I was a child, but it was always a highlight of any visit to the city.

Most sold??? Hmmmm..... I'll keep my eye's pealed for them to be for sale... on your site?!?!? Your bezels are amazing! Thanks for the extreme eye candy!

Hi Cynthia-
It was so fun to hang out with you and get to know you and the rest of the crew.

Hope you had safe travels back. I finally got home lastnight after lots and lotsa driving!

Look forward to seeing you again soon-

Thanks everyone! The bezels were a hit! I think its interesting to see who picks what, because I think they are all good, its just the imagery attracts different people. My link didnt work, so here's my email address greengirlstudios@yahoo.com
