Cigarbox Beads

Marilyn is another Etsy Beadweaver and she has gorgeous pieces! Her entry into the Etsy Beadweavers Monthly Challenge is fantastic! This theme is "RED" and she's definitely hit the mark with this fabulous choker! "Scarlet Sez Fiddle Dee Dee". Be sure to check out her shop and her blog to find out what our Marilyn is up to!
I became a non-stop beadweaver when I purchased 3 vintage cigarboxes full of beads at a flea market---about 20 years ago. I'm still using those beads, plus a 'few' more I can not help but purchase!

I'm a retired Home Ec teacher, loved what I did, love what I'm doing now.

Beadweaving is my joy AND being with our twin grand daughters. Not at the same time though, they love to 'help'! We do have 'crafting time' every day that I watch them, so I hope I'm instilling the love of creating in them.

I also knit, sew, crochet, decoupage and lots and lots of other stuff so some other goodies might show up here as well, along with beads!

Happy looking!--here and at my other etsy site - http://suchandsort.esty.com. I also just took the big plunge into blogging- come see me there- http://cigarboxbeads.blogspot.com

I've also joined Etsy Beadweavers and am a humble participant!
