Tonight is the trunk show of all the beady treasures purchased in Tucson this year. I think I shopped carefully and bought beautiful beads at great prices. I am excited to see the reaction on my customers' faces this evening as they look at the classroom fully displayed with beads. I actually ran out of room before I could get everything out. See you tonight anytime after 5:30 until 7:30. Yay! A bead event!

Just finished doing the Washington State University sponsored show, Sew Expo, at the Puyallup fairgrounds. The show was busy, really just packed full of people all in a pretty good mood and seemingly happy to be there. It must work the same for them as it does for me; shows and being surrounded by other creative people just inspires me! I could not stop my brain from designing in my mind's eye, all the things I can make and do with all the wonderful supplies at the show! I can only hope that my display of beads and charms does the same for others.

Here are some show pictures to browse. Maybe next year you will be there!
