Thanks Genea!!

Last week, I was one of the three speediest mouse clickers online and managed to snag a set of Genea Beads uber cool Wing Ding sets that she had on sale. Today, I got home from a long road trip ~ hot, tired, hungry.... and guess what was in the mail!??! YES!! Genea's beautiful, colorful beads!! Awesome!!

Now ~ if I could just find a little free time to play......

Pantone Fall Colors

For those of you who are in the 'need to know' fashion category - here is a chart of Pantone's best colors for fall 2012. I love that the entire palette isn't brown! I'm a fan of bright, bright colors so I'm happy to see the Ultramarine Green, Tangerine Tango and Bright Chartreuse! I think these colors will lend themselves really well to the current trend of big, bold, chunky pieces. Of course if you're more of a traditionalist - the Honey Gold, French Roast, Titanium and Rose Smoke are perfect choices for you! Now that you've seen the new colors, start rooting around in that stash of yours and get creative! Feel free to share what you make with us!
