Bead & Jewelry Linky Love


Greetings. I hope everyone had a nice Valentine's Day. Here's a photo of what the Short One ended up doing with the (mostly) green hearts he cut out earlier this week. (Daddy received the special blue and white heart card.)

I will actually have a new pendant design to show later this week (I know, I'm so prolific, right?). In the meantime, here are your intriguing bead and jewelry links for the week:
