Isn’t everyone glad that the cooking and baking is
over! I’m going to be spending more time in the gym
and less time at the table over the next couple of
weeks. Thank goodness Lauren ate most of the
cookies around here! I did get my exercise on X-mas
Morning! You see, Kevin’s folks live in an area in
North Carolina that’s a couple of degrees colder than
the norm. The road to their house was a sheet of
ice and we had to off road through the pasture and
then hike up a steep hill to get there. Thank
goodness I didn’t wear any high heels! It was a very
enjoyable visit.
Its been a while since our last JB! So. . . .there will
be many new things to tell! Here goes – We have
been busy getting more delicious goodies up on the
web for you to peruse and ponder over. We have
added new findings including copper and gunmetal
chain and lobster clasps, more vintage cabs set into
clasps. And even more Swarovski Crystal Clasps.
We have added some new bead stringing supplies
including the hard to find Silver Soft Flex. You will
also see some new Vermeil clasps in the
New Arrivals Section.
You will also see new Pearls, Swarovski Crystals,
including rounds in Sapphire, Siam and Fuchsia in the
satin finish. Many new Vintage items including
Vintage Seed Beads, Vintage Czech Crystals, Vintage
Swarovski Crystals, Vintage German Beads, Vintage
Buttons and more and more!!
