It’s another week closer to the Bead & Button Show! I know I have been busy getting ready for it! I found another blog post about getting prepared for attending a big show. I wrote this Ms Bead It All post back in 2007 (and here is a goofy picture of me in my booth, probably from 2006) Lots of things change over time, but I think my advice back then is still very true.
Here are some updates from some of our beady friends this week:
