I've been making beaded beads this week because I'm doing a bathroom gut/redo and there are times when I have down time and need to occupy myself - can't make glass beads that way, but I can make beaded beads!  These ones are going into the SueBeads etsy store this afternoon!  Please take a look!

You may have noticed I have a new button for newsletter signup!  I am going to put a newsletter together to inform everyone of my sales, and updates, etc., because of the new Facebook rules.  I'd love it if you'd sign up.  I promise not to spam you.  I will never sell the info.  I will never use it for anything other than informing you about SueBeads' info and sales and promotions!  After I get some signups, I'll send out a coupon code for you!  Thank you!
