Cozy Craft Day

Summer is over but we’re still in the middle of hurricane season. Last Friday, after Helene moved through Southwest Florida, it was hot and rainy and I decided to pull out two containers of beads that I have been collecting for over two decades. Although its been years since I’ve entered a bead store, there was a time in my life when I would search them out. Some of what I have now were bought in such shops and some come from jewelry that broke after lots of wear. So, I sat down with my collection and decided to make bracelets (as many as I could) in attempt to use up the beads and give them away as little gifts to friends and family.
