N radon says:I swear- someday I will work with tiny-teeny seed beads and LIKE it!! I LOVE this incredible cab you have here, so if that’s what it takes to bring the exquisite colors out of a gorgeous rock than I will learn how to string the darn little things.By the way, great pendant!

Elaine aka Belly Chick says:Thanks, Nancy! You know what….I never thought I’d ever work with seed beads either because I didn’t think I had the patience. But they are so darned versatile that they are indispensable to me now!
