I have been working on a new set of big hole beads to list in my etsy store when I get time and I think I finally finished them tonight! Look for them to be listed soon. I only have about 3 weeks left before I start back to school for my last semester of RN school and I am dreading it every day. I am ready for it to be over already! Well, off to go make more beads...I'm also working on some more froggies! :)

Well, I just listed Coral the octopus (bead) on my etsy site. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=6529967I have had him for quite some time so it was qutie a difficult decison to part with him. I have been trying to sort through some of the beads that I have laying around and have over two pounds to donate to Beads of Courage. This is a wonderful program that uses beads to commemorate milestones in treatment for children with serious illnesses. This will be my first donation (the first of many I hope) and I am trying to decide if I should wait until the box is full, or go ahead and send them now. I'll problably wait a bit longer since I keep finding more to add. For more info on Beads of Courage, check out their site at http://www.beadsofcourage.net/
