My Beading Diary: Recent Buys

One of the things I love about  summer time 

is the Beads Direct  enormous sale.

I could seriously have spent a small fortune on 

semi precious stones this year 

but I was VERY restrained 

and edited my basket right down to just the few items

 I actually had plans/ideas for. 

A  bamboo agate dyed purple drop pendant,

some faceted lavender dyed jade, and some sun stone rounds which 

I've had my eye on for ages.

You know in The Simpsons when Homer says ' mmmm Doughhhhnuts' 
that's just how I feel about these: 
'mmmm Beeeeeeads...'
