February Beads
After I took these pics I added four more beads to make 150 even. Feb's challenge was sculptural beads, twisties, and dots.

Thanks for the compliments. My twisties and dots improved a lot last month. I think when I'm doing BOC beads, I don't tighten up like I do when I'm trying to do "perfect" beads to sell.

WOW!!! Even better in person!
I got to see these amazing beads this past weekend at Fire on the Mountain, and all I can say is...WOW! They are huge, bright, beautiful and even better in person than in the photos. The kids are going to flip when they see them!

I love these beads and I think the kids must really love these too! Maybe Susan could do a tutorial for Soda Lime Times, Diane? These are really inspiring!

Diane has already asked me to do a tutorial for the cat beads for the June issue. Thanks for the kind words.
