Last week I had a fantastic time at the Columbus Beadstreet USA show!  It's always fun to see the many customers who have become my friends, and meet new people.  Thanks to all for your loyal support, you are my inspiration.  I know in these difficult economic times, the "bead bucks" are more scarce, and I am grateful to still be able to make and sell beads. 

   Gloria Prunty was the winner of the free beads in the drawing after the show.  Congratulations, Gloria, and happy beading!  I'll be giving away more free beads in a drawing at the Cleveland Gemstreet USA Show next week, Sept. 17-19, 2010--so come on over and see me there if you can!
