GEMSTONE and METAL
BLOG HOP
I spent countless hours looking at what I received for this GEMSTONE & METAL BLOG HOP. I scoured Pinterest for inspiration. At least I had the blog hop as one my excuses for hours and hours of pinning. A couple of weeks back I was out beading at my favorite local beading shop and pulled out my kit. In no time, I was laying out the gemstones and metal on my bead pad. With just a couple of changes along the way, I was stringing and crimping.
