Well, I went to San Antonio for the weekend along with my daughter and grandchildren.  The grandchildren were going to spend the weekend with their father and go trick or treating with him.  Angel and I stayed with her grandmother and aunt for the weekend.Angel kindly chauffeured me around to bead stores and electronics stores.  The electronics stores were a bust.  I was looking for another modem for my DSL as the AT&T DSL technician says this one is dying.  I also wanted an external hard drive at a reasonable price for all of my beading and crafting files so they wouldn’t get lost if my laptop died and would be readily available on whichever computer I was on.But, the beading stores were a different story.  I found Earring Designs by Sig Book III that I have been looking for, a tube of Gilt Lined Opal Miyuki 11/0 seed beads, and a set of angel wings at Nomadic Notions on Broadway.  Then we went to look for Cartwheels in Boerne (about 14 miles N of the exit for UTSA).  I spent about an hour or more looking through what they had to offer.  I ended up buying 15 tubes of Miyuki 11/0 seed beads, 5 tubes of 6mm bugle beads, and 2 tubes of Miyuki 15/0 seed beads.  I felt my bead shopping was well worth it.The children ended up with a bucket full of candy a piece so they were well happy with the weekend.

We got home late Sunday night and I had a lot of catching up to do.  This morning, I found out that my Rootbeer and Amber Diamonds and Triangles Cuff  was in a treasury called Copper Honey Goodies… Yummm.  This treasury was curated by FrancescasFancy.  Other members of my Etsy Beadweavers Team also in this treasury are:  BeadCatcher, MistyRidgeBeads, adri33, Chrisbeads, caraway, AmethystRavenstar, beadsandblooms, Beadmatrix, crownrosegems, FleurDeIrk, and SalamanderHouse.  If you are member of Etsy, I would appreciate it if you would come look at it and click on each of the pictures and then leave a comment.  Hopefully, this would help it get to the front page of Etsy.

I took a look at FrancescasFancy’s shop and found this beauty, Gold Pectoral Choker Necklace, that would have fit in this treasury so well.
