Bead Show

There is a bead show at the Crown Plaza in Cromwell, Ct on March 28 and 29. This will be the very first bead show that I have been to. I have been reading that I should bring copies of my EIN and my sales tax license. Because some of the people will give you a discount if you are a wholesaler. I am taking a small notebook to have a list of things that need. When I see them I can write down the booth number and go back and get them later. My main purpose is to get business cards, so I can connect with them later if I need to. I am hoping to get some new ideas for making new things. I will update after the show.

New Charms, Watch Faces and Swarovski Crystals

I am really excited my new charms came in that I ordered from www.thecharmbarn.com. I ordered autsim charms, wine charms, swim wear charms and eagle charms. The girls team mascot is the eagle so I will make them a necklace with the eagle on it. I ordered some crystals. some came in the other day. The colors I have now are peridot, vintage rose, jonquil, carribean blue opal, smoky quartz, black diamond, crystal, rose, lime and blue zicron. The colors that have not come in yet are light colorado topaz, fire opal, jet, emerald, garnet, tanzanite, capri blue, aquamarine, turquiose and another color but I forgot what it was.

I also ordered watch faces and they should be in this week too. So, I will have plenty to work on. I am excited about making watches with the faces I ordered.
