Remaking a previous design is not always easy for various reasons including I don't have those beads anymore. Most of these are remakes that didn't fit the mold. They are cool designs on there own.

I have been out of the habit of posting and working on remedies for that. All of these are available for purchase. DM me for details.

Working on inventory once again. So many pieces got created without being logged and now that I am trying to rework my website, they need pictures and details. I still have seventeen necklaces that do not have name tags (some don't even have names yet poor darlings.) I have 18 Power of Word necklace to photograph not including this special one. New month, New beginnings. Happy Pride Month everyone.
