I have been thinking a lot…watching the news…the economy being so bad I really do feel fortunate each time I sell some of our beads. eBay is a no go at this time, fee’s are to big for us…since we normally would have to repost the item three to four times to sell (years ago [...]

I love September…the change in the air. One of the most beautiful months on the Oregon Coast. We have warm to almost hot sun filled afternoons…sun goes down and the brisk air takes it’s place. The leaves start to turn yellow on certain tree’s and float down onto the highways…the air just seems…fresher…something added that [...]

I have thought about this alot. Why making beads and selling beads has worked for me…How I made it to where I am in less than six years. I mean, really…think about it…I made myself a career in less than a year. Within a year people in the jewelry/bead world, many anyway knew my seller name [...]
