Bent Bead Sale!

My stash of bent beads was getting a little low, so I went on a bent bead making marathon. I have about 60 or so of them, so I am gonna offer a sale on them. I am gonna offer you a special price of BUY ON GET ONE HALF OFF. Enter the code "bentbead5" in the coupon box for your discount. It will take $7.50 off your total, so if you order more I will do it manually. This top picture if a few bracelets I have made using them. They have been really popular, so hope you can take advantage of the sale. I don't have them all listed, but will add more as some sell.

Here is the link...

The sun is out and Happy Easter !!!!!

I have started this blog post so many times this week, but never got it finished. Trying to sneak it in really quick before we head to church. The exciting thing is the sun is shining!!!! and the sun is now gone ;( I don't know how many days it has been since we have seen the sun. I have SOOOO many things to be photographed and added to the website AND I want to have a little special for you. That is my goal today, so we will see how the day goes. In the meantime, here are some new pieces of jewelry to inspire you (or purchase as they are all on my website ;)

Capped beads

Over the weekend I added about 10 or so new capped beads to my website. I haven't made any of those for awhile and some of you have been asking, so here ya go ;)

Hope you are enjoying some better weather than we are. I read this is the longest cool front for April that Iowa has had in awhile. Super cloudy and cold lately ~ no fun.

Will have some new things for you later this week. THe kids have a little spring break as well AND I might do something fun for all my great customers. Stay tuned...

Focal kits

I made up a few kits yesterday. I just have sooo many beads ;) I know how hard it is sometimes when you get a bead and then you have to decide and find beads to go with it. Here I have helped you jump start that process a little. I have these two on my website, and I made up about 5 more yesterday. I hope you like them and will take advantage of this because it does take some time. Any thoughts or ideas...

Here they are...
