I did manage to get a bit of beading accomplished this week (I’m working on another beaded brooch using a 20mm resin sea-themed cabochon this time!), but then a large order of Toho and Czech fire-polished crystal beads arrived and I’m mired down in sorting and finding storage for them. My studio is very disheveled at the moment and it’s gotten to the point where it’s difficult to locate anything I look for! A major cleanup and overhaul is in store, but of course there are only so many hours in a day one can find to do this…where are those studio elves who should be doing these tasks while I sleep!
