Treasures from the Show

I'm still unpacking my bags, but I thought I'd give you a sneak peek at my treasures from the Bead & Button Show. I collected quite a few additions to my stash, which will pop up in my jewelry designs over the next year or so. Some of these will appear in upcoming episodes of Beads, Baubles & Jewels, too, so be on the lookout!

I definitely gravitate toward this color palette. I will admit that I did buy some red beads but they aren't pictured because they just didn't "go."

Without further ado, clockwise from lower left:
New toggles from TierraCast
Starry night beads and pendant from Humblebeads
Chain from Garlan Chain
Batik Beauties from Kristal Wick
Dotty star ring from Jangles
Bee/flower and koi pond clasp from Green Girl Studios
Hope bead, Dream pendant and ceramic rings from Diane Hawkey

Nevermind the fuzzy picture...anyone noticing a theme here? I didn't go out looking for starfish, but they found me anyway. I love these! The pewter one is from Green Girl Studios, the dotty one is from Jennifer Jangles and the aqua one is from Humblebeads. Get me to the beach!

Oh wow! These are all awesome finds! I really should do a post on my goodies. I am so jealous of the Green Girl purchases. I was saving that for Sunday so that I could savor some time with Andrew, but my car had battery troubles so I never made it there. And I managed to walk away with cash in my pocket (let's not talk about my credit card!). These are great. Thanks for sharing. I think we may have met outside Melanie Brooks booth...

Enjoy the day!
