You wore pearls to church on Sunday morning or a dressy affair. Not anymore..... I am more of a casual girl. Give me a pair of bluejeans, a cute shirt and a great pair of wedge sandals and I am a happy girl. I love how the dos and don'ts of fashion that I grew up with are a thing of the past. White is no longer allowed only during Memorial Day and Labor Day. Jeans are no longer worn with just a tee shirt or sweatshirt. A great pair of jeans can be dressed up with a great jacket and a tank and yes.....pearls.<br />
<br />
And have you noticed...no longer are pearls just round. I love the look of pearls with turquoise, pearls and silver, pearls with pink.........<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7783005352436731035-8698587795313136148?l=creationsbycindi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Cindinoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7783005352436731035.post-13218246235060335712011-05-21T04:55:00.001-07:002011-05-21T04:55:19.370-07:002011-05-21T04:55:19.370-07:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u2B22Z1gM9Q/TdeoGLspBaI/AAAAAAAABTk/JuuxFx7WcbM/s1600/DSCN3188.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-u2B22Z1gM9Q/TdeoGLspBaI/AAAAAAAABTk/JuuxFx7WcbM/s320/DSCN3188.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7783005352436731035-1321824623506033571?l=creationsbycindi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Cindinoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7783005352436731035.post-83857861371370353822011-05-15T13:59:00.000-07:002011-05-15T13:59:41.812-07:002011-05-15T13:59:41.812-07:00Stack Rings<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9lxckIelN_Y/TdAw-igQbQI/AAAAAAAABSI/NhzfEnYRgGs/s1600/DSCN3192.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9lxckIelN_Y/TdAw-igQbQI/AAAAAAAABSI/NhzfEnYRgGs/s320/DSCN3192.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>Did I mention I love stacking?

That is what I love about the Internet and blogging. You have that access at your fingertips whenever you want. <br />
<br />
After reading alot of blogs on beading I found my fav.....<a href="http://makebraceletsblog.com/">Make Bracelets by Tracy Statler</a> at <a href="http://makebraceletsblog.com/">makebraceletsblog.com</a>. Not only do I love her designs and "how to" videos but her blog is an easy read. Not overwhelming and cluttered....aesthetically pleasing. <br />
<br />
I have been so inspired by Tracy and her designs that I can't seem to make bracelets fast enough. And with beads I have had for so long with no inspiration as to what I wanted to do with them. I have made some of my favorite bracelets from those very beads. Thank you, Tracy. I visit your blog everyday. I hope one day someone will pay me that same compliment.<br />

But over the last year I have come to love it more than ever. I think it is because there are so many awesome options and materials to inspire and motiviate beaders. And then there is the endless, beautful selections of beads.<br />
<br />
If all of this is not reason enough to love beading.....what about stress relief? I am still amazed that in such stressful times, nothing is more calming to me than beading. I come in from a stressful day at work, bead a pretty bracelet and my mind is clear and the stress of the day is gone.<br />
<br />
Oh for the love of beading........<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7783005352436731035-6037879971977005325?l=creationsbycindi.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Cindinoreply@blogger.com0
