While I was visiting my sister in Montana, she showed me her new hobby - beadmaking collections. She's making necklaces, earrings and bracelets. While I was there, we went to a little shop and purchased our beads. While Bonnie and Mel sorted their beads into trays, organizing and labeling them, I made a necklace out of beads with a coffee-toned (or an Alpine Rubble) appearance. I got the necklace done in about 30 minutes. It is made with elastic clear-plastic thread, shown here next to a slice of fossilized shell.
I've planned to start a new hobby too - un-tangling. I'm starting with all the chords exiting my computer, scattered all over the floor behind my desk here. I figure I'll have it all untangled by Spring.
