Hey Winona! I would be tempted to add the beautifully faceted lapis lazuli beads to my gemstone stash although they might be interesting spacers with the gorgeous barrel beads on a bracelet and earrings. I do like turquoise with picture jasper. It cools the warmth of the hot sandy desert. (Sorry, I might need more coffee - or chocolate.) If you decided you prefer bronze or copper or gold crinkled rectangular metal bits you can change it. I keep a can of clear spray sealant handy so I can seal metals pieces that I alter. I personally find that pretty much eliminates tarnishing, at least so far. It will be fun seeing your lovely creations.

Thanks Faye. It's so funny, I pulled some turquoise beads from my stash but haven't had time to work on this yet. I am hoping to find some time next week. Take care my friend, 😊💗💗💗
@kathsmith5064Ай бұрын
Hi Winona. Again another box that is giving me mixed feelings, the gemstones are always welcome but I would have loved some green in there. Aqua is a bit predictable when you say south western and copper metal bits rather than the bright silver???? Look forward to your making video hun. Hugs x x x
@TheLeftHandedBeaderАй бұрын
Hi Kath, you are right again. I have found that I have to split the boxes up and do a few colourways to make use of the beads. Hopefully I will find a bit of time next week to work on this box. It has been crazy busy on the farm right now. Sending big hugs your way, 😊💗💗💗

Obviously I missed a video. I have missed Notifications re posts on several channels. Maybe KZbin and I had an argument and I was either unaware or slept through it. I knew it had been too long since I watched one of your videos, today there's 2! You created a fresh, crisp style with your May BBB, like a breath of cool air on a hot day. The first set almost had a nautical feel, at least for me. Major kudos on reaching 1000 Subscribers! That is HUGE!! Giveaways are nice but your ongoing videos are always entertaining and informative - they are also a gift. I know your summers are short and you set high outdoor expectations for yourself. Prepping for, making and editing videos is neither easy or fast. You and your efforts are appreciated.

Hugs and congratulations on reaching 1000 Subscribers! Well done M'Lady Winona!

I was hoping you would have a blast in Cincinnati, obviously you are a true People Person. Renting a scooter is a terrific idea. I believe you will find most if not all items on the BBB website. I reallly like the Window beads but I would prefer 8 to 10mm in teal. But this way I saved money. I am trying to be frugal as I search for a house. Plus less items to move and rearrange definitely appeals to me. I look forward to seeing your creations from the May and June boxes. And of course hear fun stories from your trip!
@TheLeftHandedBeader2 ай бұрын
Thanks Faye, I think that I am finally recovered from my trip. This is the first day that I have energy and don't feel like I need to lay down. Frugal sounds like a good thing. I have to start shopping my stash and reducing it some. I have way too many beads as well as all of my other crafting ventures. I want to start saving money to travel a bit more. Even though I come home totally exhausted it is so nice to get away. Good luck on your house search. Take care my friend, 😊💗💗💗

Hey Winona - It's wonderful hearing your enthusiasm re the retreat! I hope you can attend a handful every year. They sound like a grand time. If you have a chance maybe you could post a few pix under the 'Shorts' section. I have no idea howbto anything on KZbin except watch videos but YOU are a Pro! Or we will wait until younreturn andvhear your fun stories. Seems you and I both likevthe English cut beads. The color of the 3rd (watermelon) bead was my favorite color. The larger metal ovals are outstanding! Like you I truly enjoy chunky beads, chains, cookie dough ice cream, etc. (Sorry, I was in the grocery store earlier today.) Safe travels on your trip! (When I attempted to LIKE your video a pop-up message indicated it was not allowed. I can LIKE most comments though. Quite confusing. A glitch maybe? I have no clue.)

Thanks Faye, I will try to do a few shorts if at all possible. I don't know how to do them but I can learn. KZbin has a lot of glitches. Often when I try to comment on other videos I can't. I have to close out of KZbin and restart it then I'm good for a bit. It's kind of weird. Take care my friend, 😊💗💗💗

Hello Winona, good to hear your feeling better. Your designs are very nice . You could sell them as sets with the option of buying separately.

Take care and I look forward to see you next time. 😊💖

I was delighted to see you posted a video. Re not feeling well, my PCP, Cardiologist and Neurosurgeon said it seems I might have Long Covid. I wasn't aware that existed. It might be something to discuss with a physician or two. (I try to eat a piece of fruit or a salad at least 5 times a week. I have consumed a salad everyday for at least a month and fruit several times a week. It's a process.) I understand your recent creations do not make you as happy as some but I see beauty in them. I like the diversity in the designs. Asymmetrical is fun and unexpected. The longer necklace with the large, open circles adds a bit of drama and longer necklaces aka Sweater Necklaces can be slenderizing. (With that in mind I need to wear a jumprope around my neck!) The purple bracelet is unique and would be a beautiful stand-alone piece. The 3 strand bracelet is so Winona! That style always make me think of you. I could go on but it makes sense that when we feel poorly there's always a trickle-down impact. Enjoy your retreat! A nice getaway can refresh and be a much deserved change-of-pace. (We have already hit the 80⁰+ temperatures here. It's also muggy humid.) I look forward to fun stories re your retreat! Safe travels.
@TheLeftHandedBeader3 ай бұрын
Thanks Faye, I have heard of long covid and I really hope that you are feeling okay. I am feeling much better the last few days but my iron is low so it will take a while before I lose the tiredness. I can't eat raw vegetables because my stomach is paralized and I really miss salads. Fruit doesn't seem to bother me as much but lettuce is a no no. Thanks for the input on the jewellery. I just didn't get as excited about it as I usually do. I can't wait for the retreat. This is my first time flying alone and I will be spending almost a week in Cincinnati. My mom is starting to get really worried and I wouldn't be suprised if she doesn't by a plane ticket and come along. We are always kids in our mom's eyes. As for the weather, it has been pretty cool here and seems to freeze most nights. I haven't even started working outside yet, its just too cold out. Thanks for your comments and hopefully I will get a video up soon. Take care my friend, 😊💗💗💗

@TheLeftHandedBeader4 ай бұрын
I don't think that it should affect the value of the gemstone unless you are talking about high quality gemstones like ruby, sapphire, topaz etc. These are stones that expensive jewellery stores would sell and they are coloured to enhance the beauty of the stone. Dyeing and heating should not affect the value of the stones that we generally use in our hobbies. I hope that answered your question, 😊💗💗💗
