Goodies.

I'm really looking forward to coming up with some new designs that incorporate these great beads I got at the Whole Bead Show in Manhattan over the weekend...

Colorful smaller African phono beads...

Solid brass beads in three different shapes...

Serpentine heishi beads, hematite discs, dalmatian jasper squares, large stabilized turquoise rondelles and interlocking beads.

Sometimes I go to this show with a list of things I'm looking for, but I usually have more fun discovering something I didn't even know I wanted... the ideas start popping into my mind right there.
