While it seems my reputation is built on smaller, more wearably sized beads... the inner child occasionally comes out and wows me. While this set isn't complicated, nor the beads overly jaw dropping - I feel that in beadmaking - sometimes we create feeling inside a bead.... or we create a set through which we create a feeling. I feel more like a masterful artist when I'm creating components that give an overall feel... maybe that's why this set was so enjoyable.

I play a lot with transparent glass and shaping, through which my designs seem very sophisticated and elegant. But I do realize that it's hard to take opaque glass and achieve that same level of gorgeous elegance. But, lucky for us, not all occasions call for that same level of elegance - sometimes just a oddly fun set is JUST ENOUGH. smiles - Jill
