This n that

Couldn't make it out to another day of Gem Faire. Had I gone, I would likely have bought a string of those quartz crystals. They really are extraordinary looking. And I would have gotten some pearls. Oh well...next time.

I'd like to start knotting. Not that I'm going to do a lot of knotting, I just think it's a good skill. I've done some preliminary looking around on the Net, looks like what you'd need would be Griffin brand silk size 4...a couple of bead tips...and practice.

Another thing I'd like to make would be dreamcatcher earrings. Not the kind with a feather bead on the bottom, just the round piece with the web in it...like these:

Dream Catcher in Gold

The frames look a bit tricky to make (being double stranded) but the design is gorgeous. Bet these pack a lot of punch.
