The Rest of the Stash

I bought lots of stuff at The Needle Works in 26 Doors in Austin during my holiday. The threads patterns, and canvas are all from them. They have Gumnuts, the whole line, and I love the feel of that stuff. I bought several other threads too, and a canvas to help me remember home where ever I am.

The beads were all bought in Rice Village in Houston, almost next door to where I got the ribbons in my earlier stash post. Aren't these mother of pearl flowers great? They had them in sizes from about an inch across to nearly four inches.

And I got lots of strings of beads too. They were relatively inexpensive and oh so beautiful! Now I have to make more things to embellish.

This bag of miscellaneous beads was

only six dollars, and it's -heavy-. And the crystals below are dark blue with an AB finish. The picture doesn't do them any justice whatsoever.
