Zzzz...3:00am sure is dark
hmmm...well, the 'request' thing is about done- i'm loaded up on orders and requests at the moment...am not taking any more right now, but once they are done, we'll see...the Ice Cube set was the most popular request followed by the Leaf Pile...in case anyone is keeping score...thanks for your enthusiasm, I know I need to close the gates *now* or I'll never get any of these done...sorry if you missed this batch, but there will be more...I'm working on a surprise for ya'll that I was hoping I'd get to do on Sunday, but alas, no...but it'll happen eventually...i hope.. :)
Alrighty - I kept the Pickings open a little while (there are still sets for sale, btw) since ya'll were all buying the same thing...SO, I'll do what I did w/ English Tweed- I'll make more! I figured some sets would be more popular than others so I hated to keep ya'll from getting what you wanted, and remaking them is not difficult, so why disappoint you, right? I'd rather have you be happy than to feel like you can never get beads from me...call me a softy, lord knows I am...((I should say if you don't want a remake, just email and let me know...i'll happily issue a refund instead!))..
Yes, the Bead Fairy made her scheduled stop to my house last night...the beads and kiln are still warm, so she must have just left...but not so warm that I can't grab the loot and start cleaning them...that's where I am at the moment...and I'm running kinda zzzz this morning, so check back with me around 11:30am CST to see what's posted...I'll try to get a 'sampler' shot on my homepage before then, tho...rock on sistas...
I wanted to say 'thank you' to everyone who left nice messages on my Comments section yesterday - my questions were meant to beg for compliments, I was just noticing the huge number of beadmakers and wondered as buyers - is it good for you or do you even bother looking? Sounds like ya'll look a little, but its as overwhelming to you as it is to me...I also look at specific beadmaker's websites to see what they're doing, although again, not many of them...I also appreciate how ya'll help each other with questions - ya'll are so cool and nice...no wonder I have a good time posting and waiting to see what you write...I like hearing what's going on in your world..new cars, new puppies, new kids, new grandkids (!), and of course new BEADS...!

Stop cleaning beads, Donna ... let's have some more chocoholic-news on this channel ...

Hey - you know I was just *kidding* about the chocolate don't you? I can get Toblerone here in the US and its pretty good...the 5lb blocks are better than the 1lb blocks of it, I guess cause there's MORE of it, that's why...hee...
no please don't send any chocolate, it'd cost a small fortune and you'd have to mortgage your house...spend the money on glass and make some groovy beads instead!!

Me ... kidding ... never ever ... :-)))
TOBLERONE ... well ... Donna ... what shall I write ... this is from Switzerland ... :-(((
I was more into:

Gone for today ... buying glass instead of chocolate. THANKS, Donna!
Have a wonderful day,

Leysieffer? I just cruised around the German version of their site...its all tasty and delicious...Lindt is very good, I can get that at a local grocery and its hard not buying ALL the various flavors of candy bars they offer...oh man...I gotta go eat some lunch before I eat all the Snickers in the house!!
