Hi everyone! I'm new :)

Hey guys! I'm new to this group and new to google groups in general. I
actually had no idea they even had groups!!

Let's see, a bit about myself. I'm a mama to two boys, age 3 and 1. I
work from home part time for a local software company, and due to
medical issues mostly, my fiance and I started doing some beading on
the side for a bit of extra money. I admit I thought it was going to
be a lot easier than it really is, but I LOVE it. I don't even care
about how easy it is anymore, I'm having too much fun! hehe. You
can see some examples of our work he www.glitterophelia.etsy.com and
I also posted new work at my livejournal he
http://glitterophelia.livejournal.co...92.html#cutid1 (I didn't
think the pictures were quite good enough to post on etsy yet).

I'm definitely interested in learning new techniques. I find myself
paging through the Fire Mountain gems catalog and wondering "how did
they do THAT?" when I see certain pieces of jewelry. It'd also be nice
to talk to others who do beading as a business, as well (though I'm not
sure if this list is for that kind of thing).

anyway, if you have any questions about me, just ask!

Thanks and I look forward to lots of beading discussions!!!

Hi Cherrie, and welcome! This is a great group, and we share lots of
information about techniques and tools and whatever....just be prepared for
bluntly truthful answers, but then since you say you've noticed " I admit I
thought it was going tobe a lot easier than it really is, but I LOVE it. I
don't even careabout how easy it is anymore, I'm having too much fun! hehe.
" I think you'll do just fine!

Thank you everyone for the welcome!!

I admit sometimes I do get a bit frustrated, but all in all, it's all
still quite fun. hehe. I think sometimes I take on a bit too much at
once, and I expect it to be PERFECT the first time...and of course
that's not the way things work!

Welcome Cherrie!

Plan on getting hooked! I started out a lampworker, but now I'm a wire
worker, and a seed beader too!!! I think I'm addicted to it all. I just
haven't gotten to PMC or Polyclay yet!
