It snowed 9 inches last week. I'm not thrilled. I'm ready for spring to well, spring! My birthday is in a month and I have my menu all planned out for what my husband is going to grill and even though I know it's always been nice in May, April snows always make me fret.

Here's the latest article from the Beadwork site at BellaOnline.com.
