What did I buy?

Crystals -- tiny tiny TINY ones.
oh me Lordy, I do love me some tiny crystals.

And hot fix crystals too.
And some pearls, seeds, and some odd little things to use in quirky little places.

This time my color chart was quite different and a tiny bit out of my comfort zone -- but I am feeling good about it

Vivid purple, golds, margarita greens.

And then there is that whole green group -- so that I can finish a bracelet for ME !
We discovered that I do not keep anything for me -- and I had almost nothing of my creations to wear to the show.

I need to be on a quest for myself.

Now I am on a kick of wanting to wire crochet again -- I did one necklace for myself over a year ago.
Looks like I will have to re-teach myself.
And that whole turn part looks a bit intimidating.
But I will buy some cheap wire from Michael's and work on it.

Then there is the purse I need to finish for myself.
And a bracelet for a co-worker/friend.
OH and either a pin or bracelet for me -- I am thinking bracelet as I have some ideas re racing silks.
Sheesh!
so much and not enough time.

I understand your fixation on tiny crystals. I've fallen in love with 3mm crystals and seem to buy them by the gross. Just finished a Russian spiral with them and have two more planned.

So did you eat any good food? I'm always curious about road food. Funny, but when Chris & I take road trips we always find places to eat that are a little wrong/right which makes that trip memorable. Oh and for beads...a girl can NEVER have enough

I have that problem, too, of not having enough of my own stuff to wear to bead shows. Sounds like you had a good time!
