The full-sized kitty cat is put on hold while I finish up some bracelets for the Christmas show at CHAC - Holiday Jewels. This is what I have so far.

And already my mind is inventing new sizes (I want to try four beads in a row) and new colors. I goofed with my order from Fire Mountain and have Amber AB 8s enough to bead a rug! But first I will finish up these that are already strung.

This is why I make so much jewelry when I do. I want to try out other ideas and colors and once my needle (or crochet hook in this case) is started with a project, it is so hard to stop it. Even though this small stuff makes my hands ache I cannot stop - yet.
A word above: Those lovely brass ends for the bracelets come from B'Sue's brass stamps on Etsy.
