Backward Bead Post

I received a FABULOUS surprise package of beads from Rings & Things this weekend as part of their blog partner program! YAY!! How exciting, I love bead surprises!

These beads are so great and while they are fabulous by themselves, they make such an amazing impact grouped together. So, instead of posting one at a time until the weekend, I thought it would be fun to just WOW you right up front because that is how I felt when I opened up the package.

I will then pull out the similar groups individually so you can see how pretty they all are through the week. It is a slightly different approach for me, but I'm sure you can understand how the beads made me do it! :)

I also wanted to take a few minutes to thank everyone for playing along in yesterday's challenge to guess the meaning behind the bracelet I made on Saturday. There were lots of great guesses and some sweet stories too!

The winner will receive a random bead mix of pieces and parts that have been showcased here in the past. The winner and "answer" to the challenge were just updated in yesterday's post.

I hope you are all having a great week so far!! :) If not, think SPARKLE...that usually helps!
