Friday Again?! Already?!
(0)
I have no idea where the days are going lately… They just seem to slip right by me without any warning. All I know is that I wake up (usually sandwiched between Tom and Colden with Moose sprawled out on our toes) and get breakfast for me and Colden, and then BOOM! It’s bedtime! Where … [View Details]
Boogers and Beads
(1)
Yup, that’s where I’ve been for the last week. Boogers and beads, but mostly boogers… It started on Thursday morning when Colden woke up with a fever of 103 and a runny nose. We took him to the pediatrician who didn’t see anything obviously wrong with him, and we decided to cancel Thanksgiving with Tom’s … [View Details]
Survived the Weekend and Back in the Game!

Tom left for his annual hunting trip downstate on Friday, leaving me along with the kiddo for the weekend. I managed to get all my work done on Friday and I got EIGHT – EIGHT!!! – new peyote beading patterns finished and published on the site. I was on a roll, and it felt great. … [View Details]
Poor little man…
(2)
My little boy was not in a good mood this morning. Everything that he tried to do ended with him in tears, and I could not figure out what was wrong. I finally abandoned my plans to do anything and just gave him my 100% undivided attention all afternoon, and he fell asleep on the … [View Details]
I Don’t Know What it Is…
(0)
I don’t know if it’s the cold rain that started last night, the volume of work I need to do this week and next, the gray, sunless morning, the early nights, or the mounting medical bills and the idiots at the billing department at Adirondack Medical Center who decide to send us straight to collection … [View Details]
How to Train Your Dragon

This is, without a doubt, my new all-time favorite scene from a movie. And in particular, my new favorite movie. To me, this is a movie about trusting yourself and earning the trust of others. It’s about knowing who you are and using that knowledge to the fullest. It’s about following your heart and doing … [View Details]
Beautiful Cabochons by Marsha Hedrick of Amazing Porcelain
(0)
Marsha Hedrick really picked the right name for her business: Amazing Porcelain. I finished another piece using one of her beautiful cabochons this time: I chose the blue and gold cabochon because I don’t work with blue very often, and I wanted to see what I could do with it. I was also interested in … [View Details]
If I’m Too Busy to Blog…
(0)
Then that’s a good thing, right? It means I’m doing what I love to do – beading, writing directions, photographing tutorials, making beading pattern graphics or chasing after Colden, or going to playgroups and play dates or cooking… In case anyone has been following the adventures of the first Best Little Bead Box, we are … [View Details]
Beadwork Exhibit at the North Country Cultural Center for the Arts
(0)
I just finished taking over 200 photographs of some of the most amazing beadwork I have ever seen in my entire life. Many of the pieces I’ve seen in advertisements, online and in books, and it was an incredible experience to be so close to them. The colors and the forms and the beads were … [View Details]
How Time Flies…
(0)
What was all that stuff about Saturdays and Sundays being days of rest? Ha! Not in my world! Saturday was full of our usual stuff – housecleaning, cooking, running errands. We were invited to an appetizer party at our friends’ new house, so I made a HUGE batch of hummus and we brought along some … [View Details]
