THE STORY BEHIND IT

I have lots of inspirational bits of color and creativity bouncing around in my studio... and though I am discontinuing my original Bead Soup Collection, I do have a few boxes left (but not enough to sell directly on-line).

What's a girl to do with so many of you asking if I will PLEASE, pretty please just sell a couple more...

After lots of thought and staring at all the bits and pieces of bead soups, fibers, fabric, metal, kits and projects - I have hit upon a very exciting idea:

Beverly's Bag of Color

So, here is how it will work... Periodically I will create a special package, perhaps a jewelry kit, or a mix of beads and fiber or bits of sea glass, or... along with jewelry instructions to complement the materials in your package.

To make it FUN (and because my stock is low) each bag of color will have a limited quantity and be very different.

Sound like fun? If you want to know the minute I get it on-line, then subscribe to my BLOG, join my MAILING LIST or just keep checking my website!
