Mary S - Sweet Chick says:Thank you ladies!

Sigh……….more to wish for…

Luna Chick aka Coral says:The love textures in this. I keep checking the design gallery to see if anyone has made anything with the leaf beads yet. They are so cool!

puppychick labratbecky says:Mary, you are such fun! How to get the beads into your stash……hmmm…..maybe this lovely combo will be a POD? Good luck! I have turned into a hoarder. If I see it and want it badly enough, I will eventually just suck it up and buy it. Not the best financial planning on my part…..
but when I held out on the Larimar nuggets, I missed out. The takehome message from that was JUST DO IT.
(Anybody want to sell me a few Larimar nuggets?)

Elis Mom says:I agree with Becky. If I want it, I buy it. Always buy $40 worth to get free shipping, and use the 10% off coupon. So, I may have to eat beenie weenies for a week….Love all the colors and textures in your pick! Hope you slurge just a little bit!

Mary S - Sweet Chick says:HeHe!
Thanks again ladies!
Yes Susie, I always purchase $40 when I place an order. The thing is, if I got EVERYTHING I wanted, I’d be placing orders several times a week! I’ve been buying a lot lately and it’s time to put myself into bead prison for awhile.
It’s sooooo hard!!
