Northeast Bead Retreat

I'm so excited!!! A bunch of us that met on a yahoo chat group are planning a Northeast Bead Retreat. We met tonight in chat & it's really coming together. The group is made up of people of varying talent, so we're just going to teach other techniques that we know. So, a bit of teaching & a bit of learning combined with lots of fun & laughter making new friends.

1st Etsy sale!!! WOOHOO!!!

I'm loving this whole etsy thing. I didn't understand it for the longest time, but I joined a street team, LEST & I'm learning quite a bit. I made my 1st sale this weekend, 3 items to the same person no less! I think it's due in part to some things I learned from my street team. If you're looking for fabulous lampwork beads, do a search for the tags LAJ (that's me :-) & LEST for the work of the talented LEST street team members.

Etsy Shop Open!

I'm so bad about keeping up with this blog. It's not that I don't have what to say. I just forget ;-). Well, I just wanted to announce the opening of my new etsy shop. I'm going to try to be better about loading things there then I have been about blogging. So, here's the link if you'd like to check it out. Feedback is always welcome.
