I did it - I bought over a $1,000 dollars of beads at one show on one day. Thus, I am a beadjunkie! It is true. I think of the little shiny beads on a string. Pearls and stone, glass and lampwork and I know I must have it. The best part is I use everything I buy. I carry them in my wallet. Is that considered using a bead? I wear them on string or hemp. I embellish all I can with beads. What do you do?
