~Beads, beads and more beads!

I have been remiss in posting here lately.  I just realized I have not posted since before Memorial Day!  eek!  It's hard to believe that summer is almost half way  over when it feels like it just began.  Anyway, I needed to make a chunky charm for a swap and having never made one before, felt the need to practice.  So I made beach themed charms for my daughter, her BFF and my granddaughter.  BFF also got a card since it was her birthday.  I think they turned out well and have fueled a new addiction.  All of the beads and some of the charms came from Fire Mountain Gems (love them!).  I also picked up some charms at both Michael's and Joann's on sale  I think there may have been a few in my stash as well.  These babies are really STUFFED!  Thanks for stopping by!
