Many of you know about the upcoming feature in Beadwork Magazine, but what most of you know know is that I have been waiting for almost 4 months for this to come out..... I was asked to NOT show off the beads I worked with, the design or even any working photos!  For me, that has been hard!  This creation might just be one of my best creations ever and I can't show anyone!!!!!!  Well, the good news is that the publish date for the magazine is March 7th and I am on the edge of my seat!!  I am not sure what was written, how the photos turned out, or even if they LIKED the design!!!  BUT, here is sit, waiting and waiting  - both to show off my creation and see my creation in print!!!!

I'll give you one hint.....the creation had LOTS of purple in it!!!

I forgot to mention yesterday that I am also offering FREE SHIPPING in my studio to all US and CANADA residents.  I wanted to say THANK YOU to all of you that have supported me and for those of you who are trying to add to their collections!!!  It is only until the end of the month, so please HURRY!!!

As many of you know, I put beads out for a new project yesterday..... you can see it 'growing' on my Fan Page or Google+ page throughout the day.

Today's featured artist is: CurvyClothingAUS.  Now I know that this store is NOT handmade, however, I fell in love with their clothing line when I received a pancho simular to this one as a gift last year.  I just had to look at the label and then go find this amazing shop.  I am a 'plus size' woman that has a VERY hard time finding things that are CUTE, FLATTERING and not to expensive in my size.  The other problem is that my SIZE seems to be an issue for different brands.  In some brands I am a 26 - in some I am a 18!!!  THAT is a BIG difference.  Also, I have found that most aren't really made to fit larger women, they are just 'larger sized'.  So, of course, now you can see why I fell in-love with this store!!  I was told that they also have a BIG sale on Wednesday and Thursday on their fan page - https://www.facebook.com/CurvyClothingAUS - so make sure you check them out!!!! Please let them know where you heard about them!!!

Today I would like to leave you with this thought;

Become famous for finishing important, difficult tasks!
