The draw of beadwork

My drafting table in my office is now cleared off well enough that I can actually do some projects. I made it level, so I am able to do beaded jewelry. I had forgotten how much I enjoy making my own necklaces and bracelets that express my own taste.

And, its different now with making jewelry, when I first started doing bead-work I had very poor supplies. Over the years, my inventory has grown exponentially, and I now have the proper findings and tools to create some quite lovely pieces. I am proud to wear what I have created. I think it helps me express my individuality, which sometimes I feel like I have lost in some circles.

I am glad I found some of myself again.
