Right after I took the photo to the left, when I was all set to share with you some more stuff about adding beads -Well, um, yes, sometimes the beads have a smaller hole than usual and they won't go on the thread.
You guessed it - the teardrop shaped bead broke when I tried to force it, and it was my last one in that color - panic! I need it to finish my necklace which is 2/3 done!
I can't go down to the local bead store because they are at the big bead show so - there's my excuse to go to the bead show...yeah, I know, as if I needed an excuse. (grin)
I'm so sorry you "have to go to the bead show"... my thoughts will be with you... find pretty beads!
ReplyDeleteI really am sorry your bead broke... such aggravation!
I like Diane am very sorry you must trudge to the bead show and be forced to search for beads!
ReplyDeleteI am also truly sorry that your bead broke. How frustrating. I hope you find one to match.
As much as I know it is so difficult for you to go into a gigantic room filled with all kinds of lovely, unique and amazingly beautiful beads I hope you can find it in your heart to have fun and seek for the positive in the situation and make lemonade out of the lemons before you....Poor dear....
ReplyDelete:P Go have a ball, ya silly, we all know you're dying to go....LOL!
Thank you, Diane, tattycat, and tattingchic - wouldn't it be a much nicer world if breaking a bead was the worst problem anybody ever had?
ReplyDeleteWell, I happened to be very lucky to find the exact same beads, hurray! And - several people remarked on the tatted jewelry I was wearing. So some people got educated about tatting as well.
Glad to hear you found a match for you beads. Sounds like you had fun at the show.
ReplyDeleteOh I really hope it was a good trip you had after all to that bead show now that you were forced to go there ;-D .
ReplyDeleteYou did not happen to see anything nice besides getting more of that particular bead, am I right? (LOL)
Thank you Clyde and dantatter - yes, I did have a good time at the bead show - I think you would have enjoyed it too! Actually, I was trying to forget about going this year (since I always end up spending more than I really should). Then that last bead broke on the morning of the best bead shopping day - so I really was "forced" to go, LOL!
