What To Do With The Overflow !

You all know how things just sneak up on you....one day you are excited that the little brass paw print charm you ordered has arrived and you are so pleased with your bad self, for being so clever as to find it and create a little canvas, the first Squiggee Design.........this is your first embellishment........then five years later realizing that you could never possibly use all the beads, buttons, charms and other little do das, that you have accumulated in the last five years ...never ever in your lifetime........ especially since the advent of being on Fire Mountains list to receive new catalogs , filled to bursting with an impressive array of beads and charms and so much more....like everything I do or over due...my curiosity to see what things look like and not wanting to miss out on an embellishment I might need one day....I have overflow...lol....or what I call a shit load !...

Fire Mountain must take some of the blame....because I never realized all the stuff you can get to make jewelry........I am even getting offers from jewelry and beading magazines and clubs....I just use this stuff for needlepoint...but then.......I do have overflow.... sooooooo in my last bead order I added a few little things...like memory wire...glue and little gold end beads for the memory wire and a pair of blunt cutters for wire .....now the only positive thing I can see about all the overflow is that I also have so much to pick from....so these two memory wire wrap bracelets are my first attempt at jewelry making.......... you might think it is real slick of me two have the hand model...but this was left over from my attempts to get a stand for my needlepoint cuff that went to market on another hand...this one the second attempt ,was too small.....so I am left with this useless hand........but now it gives my bracelet blog some class...lol........these are gifts...the pearl one for my mother-in-law....and the face fimo with stuff for a niece.....actually...doing these wasn't all that much fun and gluing the little tiny beads on the ends was a bitch.........I think I might need more tools...ummmmmmmmm....maybe I will just take a look at my new Fire Mountain cat..............there is no help for those who can't control themselves....I can't help it I have overflow....

FYI...thought for the day...this was printed inside my top of my Diet Raspberry Iced Tea Snapple...

quote...."A Venus flytrap can eat a whole cheeseburger."...this is a real fact....and people think I am crazy because I don't garden...I also don't share my cheeseburger with a plant !.....
