As The Bead Turns…

…in this week’s episode, The Art Bead Scene neighbors have noticed that Earthenwood Studio has “given birth” to some new Pea Pod babies! How did Earthenwood Studio keep the Pea Pod babies a secret?! The neighbors think because they were hidden in the garden!

(Remember As The Bead Turns is a bead soap opera written for fun, like the television programs, it is acting and Earthenwood Studio has not really given birth.)

So sit back with your box of bon-bons and enjoy the soap opera-like drama and gossip in the bead and design world….
