Beadles

When we were back east visiting some friends, we visited Rockport, MA.  It's a fun little town on the water.  I found a great bead shop: Beadles and got this cute charm for my charm bracelet.  It's modeled on the famous fishing shack (below).

Beads

Last Saturday we stopped at a shop over in Sycamore because they said they were having a big bead trunk sale. (In the UK they're called boot sales because the trunk of the car is called a boot...) I'm not sure why, but I always end up being drawn to the green beads. This picture didn't turn out that great, but the small beads at the bottom are a beautiful grey. The ones at the top are a lovely light green. Now I'll have to decide what to do with them!
