ok this one has been sent out into the wild and i'm starting to feel really frazzled - i'm gonna run out of time to get all the ones completed that i need to get done before christmas  but this one at least made the dead line  of course y'all are all getting snow and what we are getting is ice. it's starting to freeze on the trees and power lines now and it's just starting to get dark so we have no idea what nightfall will bring but sure are praying we never, ever see another ice storm like the one in '94. we were without power for longer than i even knew was possible. and i'm not working with those beads by candlelight lol . shell heishe, rose quartz, sterling silver and willow creek jasper.   kim |

Oh, Kim, that is beautiful! But, you know, you really didn't have to make me a Christmas present!  It is also getting cold here. 33 degrees and the wind is howling. Going to be about 25 tonight in San Antonio, so that means it will be closer to 20 or maybe even colder here. Temp just dropped to 32 and it's not even dark yet! And the next couple of days are suppose to be even colder. High of 38 tomorrow. I'm hatin' it! My feet are freezing already and I have on socks and my fuzzy house shoes. Hate to even think about having to go outside, which I am going to have to do soon to disconnet the water hose from the RV, drain the hose and cover the faucet. Sure is nice to have 60 gals. of water in the fresh water tank so I don't have to be without water! llana |

Wow, that is totally gorgeous! I love those different beads. I'm pretty excited about finding something special to do, I picked up a couple of those silver connectors like you used here, can't wait to try it on something. Great job, you all are an inspiration!!

That is awesome Kim. Great job on the cab and the necklace as a whole looks superb. One down, 99 to go? Better go get a generator in case you lose power. Gotta keep those tumblers goin'-oh yea, and maybe the fridge. ;D Keep warm, and keep goin', still got 2 days. Ed |

Hello Kim,
That is a gorgeous necklace!
It won't be long and Sands and I both will be asking ... How did you do that?
Merry Christmas,
John

"You've come a long way baby"!! Very nice work Kim!! I find myself smiling here every time I see someone moving up a notch in our hobby. Sitting here I think back when questions like,"Why does my tumbler bulge?",,,,,,, "How much grit to I need for a 3lb tumbler?",,,,, "Which soap is best?",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, There's no end to this hobby and you're well on your way to bigger and better things!! Bravo Kim!! Thanks,,,,,,,,, Tom |

but this one at least made the dead line 
of course y'all are all getting snow and what we are getting is ice. it's starting to freeze on the trees and power lines now and it's just starting to get dark so we have no idea what nightfall will bring but sure are praying we never, ever see another ice storm like the one in '94. we were without power for longer than i even knew was possible. and i'm not working with those beads by candlelight lol 
That's some awesome work.
