Yikesssss, its already Friday. I love Fridays but where has the time gone. I never ever have enough time to do the things I love.... not to mention work has been nuts! and I don't have any time to blog at all  

I did want to take a few minutes to share with you the a few pictures of projects I am starting on soon, (well one is finished) ... The southwest bead challenge I mentioned already. I got a pair of earrings done and I am hoping to start on a bracelet this weekend (we will see)  

Close up of an earring. 

I have spent more money at the stores than I thought or hoped I would, but each thing I have bought has had a purpose,  they have been for gifts to make, and majority of them had coupons, good coupons. I bought $44.00 worth of items at Pat Catan's for $3.38 and I got over $100.00 worth of items at Jo-Ann's for $28.00. 

These are the earrings I made so far.
Do they look south western to you? 

The beads I will use to make a bracelet.
