| Me here! You probably thought that i had disappear, but i´m still working hard with my creations. I also work with a new site and i was stupid enough to think that i soon would have it ready to go out in cyberspace...I should have known better! It is really a huge job.... I have so much new creations that i want to show you and i thought it would be great to show them in a whole new site but.... I realize that i have to work with both of them, until my new site is done. I have also a brand new camera and i can take much better pictures with that. So..I´m still here and my beadwork continues.... I hope i can get back with new pictures soon, i will start photograph them in a couple of days. | |

| Hi friends! Once again i have added more eyecandy. What time it takes! I allways wonder, when i see a very big and funny site, how much time it takes to update it! I have added 3 pages today and it takes several hours. Well, i hope you enjoy the new stuff. I wonder if some of you are beadaholics like me, Every single moment i can find; I bead. I would like to share some of my stitches and tutorials with you, but that take a long time for me to do (i´m not so good at it, so if you have tips for me, please contact me) so i bead instead. I wish you a Happy New BeadingYear, may all of us find more time for beading. | |

| Hi again! As you can see, i have changed my site. I hope it will be easyer for you to locate everything now. I have also many more jewelry´s in new designs but i have not pictures on them yet, i will soon add them. It´s so much other things to do now, so near Christmas. We have not snow yet in Sweden and i really hope it will arrive before Christmas. This darkness is so boring and we really need some light, even if it´s only some snow. I will work until the 23:Rd and then i have vacation in 14 days and that will be lovely, i´m sure that i will found some time (beside beading and new creations) to add pictures on the new stuff. It would also be nice to create some patterns for you. I wish everyone out there a very nice and peacefull Christmas. Take care of you! | |

| Dear everyone! I hope you´re doing well out there. Here in Sweden (Stockholm) it´s snowing today. It´s the first snow we see now and it sure light up this time of year when it so dark. I have done some new stuff that you can see on my picture pages, it´s amazing what fantasy can create. Allways when i have created a new form of my jewelry, i think that i´m not able to think out a new one, the fantasy must have an end. But it allways comes more and i´m so grateful that i have that fantasy, the ultimate satisfaction is to create a fresh idea.. I hope you enjoy my new ones. By the way, if yo are curious how i look, you can see a picture of me on my page; Beading history....Now i´m not anonymous anymore.... | |

| The autumn is really here now in Sweden. It´s cold and dark and everyone is tired. It´s allways like that this time of year, we don´t see much of the sun. But it can be nice too; One can light candles and do christmas-beading. Right now my passion is freshwater-pearls. I have bought for very good prices on e-bay from England and USA. The freight from USA is higher but i sell some of the pearls here and get the shippingcost back in that way. You can see some of the pearls in my new added pictures. I like when the pearls not are the same shape and shimmer in differebt colours of white and peach, they are lovely in jewelrys. Take care until next time.... | |

I´m back!
It was a while ago, i have been busy. I work 8 hours per day and then i go
home to my family (we are 6 persons) so you can maybe understand how much
cleaning and laundry we have, hahaha. And every evening until between
8-9 PM i work with my jewelrys. I have at last started with my bride-jewelry,
you can see pieces of it, i have updated my pictures. I´m on my way to start
my own little company, BeAdorable grows. The other day i ordered new
business-cards, i found a very good site to order from, i could add my own
pictures and i think they will turn out great, it was also very cheap. I
really recommend

| I hope you have a great beading until next time! Take care... | |

| Hi everyone! At last....I found a webcamera that is good. Take a look at my new pictures on wirework, what a different! A week ago i wrote that i should start with jewelry´s for brides, i have not. I have so much else to do first but i will not complain...I get compliments for my work so far, from people that like what i do. The best PR is to wear the items one create and i allways do that. Well, i have updated my site today and hope i finally get some time for beading. Have a great beading until next weekend | |

| Even if i have not add any pictures for a while, my beading and wirework continues. I´m so tired of my bad webcamera so i have been taken pictures with my ordinary one. Today i added pictures of some wirework that i have been working with; Pendants and rings but i will change that pictures, they are not to good. Yesterday i was in a second-hand store and found old necklaces done with pearls. I bought them for $1.70 (SEK 15 kr). I use to find old pieces very cheap and then i cut the thraeds and use the pearls for my own projects, it´s great. I also find chains in this way. They are mostly not genuine gold or silver, but if the chains is in good quality anyway (they have not change to a dark colour) i allways buy them. Well, now i really want to start my project with wire and beads to make bride-jewelry´s. I have a few things to finish first but after that i will start, i have planning that for a long time but it´s still the same problem; TIME... | |

| So little time, so many beads....I have not the time anymore for either the beads or my homepage, it´s to sad. If one will have a living site it´s necessary to update it often but i can´t find the time for that. I continue my work with wire and right now i have some orders on beadjewelry to do. I really want to find time this weekend to take some pictures for the site and it would be nice to find time to create patterns for you beading guys...I know how i appreciated the patterns and tutorials that kind people shared, when i started beading. Anyway, i still got the creativity and ideas. | |
| I have now found 4 companies in Sweden (believe it or not) that sell beads, beading supplies, wire and books. Thank you Mia, for the tips! Well friends, have a great beading until next time... | |

| Don´t you think it´s a little strange and funny how the fantasy and inspiration works? When i are totally out of ideas...POW! There comes a fresh and new one. And it comes when i Shower my hair, in the middle of the night etc. I allways read a bit before i go to sleep and several times i don´t know what i reading about, the good ideas allways come when you have other things in mind. Not long ago i dreamed about a solution on a jewelry i really wanted to do, but i did not know how i should create it, and there came the gift from "sleepland" :-) I´m lucky that i remember my dream because i have not created that jewelry yet. This weekend i have re-started my work with thin wire and beads. If you have read my beading-history, you know that i started my beading-journey with loomwork. Then a actually tryed to create jewelry with wire and beads, but very soon i only used fishing-line. Now i´m back with wire and beads and there comes out totally different jewelrys than it did before. And how far would i come without all inspiring beading-artists out there, and the internet, thank God for internet.... | |

| Started work again this week, i really miss my fulltime beading. Last Friday i delivered a bracelet to a client and went home with 4 new orders. It´s so fun to see other people wear the jewelry. I also bead right now, on the butterfly; that one you can find on my pattern-page. I have a good program, actually for cross-stitching, but it work good for beadingpatterns also and i just played with that program to create the butterfly. I did not know how the butterfly would look like in reality. Half of the buttefly is done and it looks great. I must also buy more wire, i have worked up every centimetre :-) oh, what a joy! | |

| This is my last week of vacation, i will miss my beading and wirework! Right now i´m looking for displays for my rings so i can store them. I was cleaning up on my working table the other day, rings and bracelets was in one mess after my creativity on the vacation. I have thoughts of planning for a meeting for beaders in Scandinavia but still i´m only a beginner and must learn how, but it sure would be fun. If somebody out there have the knowledge/tips, please send me e-mail. | |

| Beading, beading and beading....Idon´t do anything else for the moment. And i received sterling silver beads 2mm yesterday from USA with some hanks of other beads to, what joy! And the day before that i received wire, WOW what items one can create with that, it was so fun. So today i created a bracelet with beads and in the afternoon i worked with wire. Can one have much more fun on the vacation? NO! So...now i must find more wire to work with and avoid the pure copper...It´s good to have green fingers in the garden but not in connection with wire jewelry... | |

| Today i created my very first necklace, it´s a little strange that i have not done one before. It turned out lovely. | |
| Here in sweden is beading not a very big thing. Sometimes i think that i´m all alone with it (maybe i am). There are no books and beads of good quality is not easy to get. But i begin to wonder if it´s not growing... The other day i found a new beadshop at internet, that is located in Sweden and today i found a company here who import and sale beads and other items for creating of jewelry´s. I will go at a fair that will take place in the end of August, some jewelry designer will be there and also this company that i found today. If i want, i think i can start something and inspire other people to create beaded jewelry. Hmmm...Maybe i should contact these two companys.... | |

| At last, done with my webpage, what a huge job. | |
| I start my 3 weeks vacation now, i will just be beading and beading...... Today i created a new item, i thought that it would take a little while but it took all day, but what a pleasure...I had longing for my beads when i created the website. | |
| Here in Sweden it´s so hot right now, it´s summertime but we are not used to this heat, but it´s lovely, to soon is the autumn here and we have a long, dark winter in front of us. | |
| The first Sunday on my vacation, every year, i open a bottle of wine and stay up as long as i can., just because i can.... It´s a nice tradition... And look at the neighbours (who has not vacation) when they turn of the lights in their houses. | |
| To all beaders out there: Cheers for vacation and beading! | |
