It's official. My mom has created a monster.
Crafts are the way my mom and I bond, as I think I've mentioned. So on Saturday, my mom and I met up in midtown and pillaged a couple of bead stores for shiny things. And oh the shiny things that there are! I really need to start selling some of my necklaces...
Mom bought pretty crystal beads and pretty pearlescent beads and really cool thread. The two of us were like kids with a blank check in a candy store. When Dad picked us up, he saw our bags of beads and rolled his eyes. So yesterday, I picked up a dress for my cousin's upcoming wedding, and spent hours beading. I even experimented with a new necklace design.
The green one was the last one I made. It matches the dress I'll be wearing to Justin's wedding. As I was going to bed, my mother was calling after me, suggesting the various color combos I can use for the necklace. Eventually I had to cut her short so I could go to bed... I didn't. I stayed up till 4 AM beading without realizing it. Oops...
*sigh* I've become an addict.
