Hi Lori
Congrats on this one! My son loves his calendar I gave him from a few years ago. Is this your second time in the Bead a Day calendar?
Just Twittered and posted on FB! :-)

Pretty Things said...

Hi Cindy! Yes, this is the second time I've done this calendar -- I'm going to have to take a break from next year, though, because I'm tutorial-ed out! They take a lot of work!

Kendra said...

I didn't know they made a bead calendar! How fun! Your necklace is beautiful!

Pattee said...

Ok, so my comment will be how do I facebook? Do I just put it in that What's on your mind box? I don't know why I can't embrace the fb concept... maybe because everytime I go on there I seem to waste hours wandering around:)

Sherry Goodloe said...

Congratulations Lori!! I wonder when I win (thinking on the positive side - hee hee) if I could actually learn how to bead?!

I will go to FaceBook tonight and start spreading the word *smiles*

Lola....L..O..L..A....lo--oh--luh! said...

Hey!! That is so cool that you are in the Calendar! It looks like it is by the same company that did the Sewing Calendar that I have some projects in.
Congratulations!!!

Kathy said...

HI Lori,
I was pleasantly surprised to see that you live in MD, too! I love your work (I checked out all of your site with your jewelry). I'm impressed with your creativity and all the publications in which you've had articles/jewelry published! Hope I can win this cool calendar and beads. ;-)

Arachne53 said...

Oh, I hope it's me. I don't Twitter or Facebook, either, and I don't have a blog. I think I'm becoming something of a Luddite. LOL!

Anyway, I'd love to win; hope mine is the lucky entry. And congratulations on all the beautiful jewelry you create. I've loved seeing it over the years.

What a cool calendar. I had no idea that such a thing existed. I would love to have one for new ideas. I might have to order myself one online since I haven't seen them in stores (although it might be too early for the 2010 calendars in stores right now...).

Hope all the designs are as lovely as your necklace.

tattwo said...

I love beading but haven't done much of it lately. Maybe the Bead a Day Calendar would give me some inspiration and I would find the time to make a couple of beautiful pieces. Thanks.

sweepsqueen said...

I'd love to learn how to bead :)

pitaharmon said...

My mom is a bead queen. I would give this to her, because now that she lives alone, she needs something to keep her busy. She would probably do every single project.

this looks like fun! I've just gotten into beading so an idea a day would be helpful for inspiration.
