The right time, the right finding...

"Fiesta" Bracelet
Sometimes I buy beads or a finding, and they sit in my bead box for what seems like forever.  I can be hard on myself for not "using up" what I've purchased in a timely manner.  When my aunt Sheila created these beautiful southwestern beads I knew I had to make myself some jewelry with them.  The clasp and earring posts used in the jewelry had been sitting in my sterling silver box for quite a ling time.    I can't imagine the jewelry with any other findings.  I was glad they had waited for the right beads to come along.  So, lesson learned...Sometimes I just need to be patient with myself!  If you would like to see more of my aunt's fabulous lampwork beads, you can visit her etsy shop at:  www.StoneDesignsBySheila.etsy.com
