I am really excited about the new "Breast Cancer Awareness Challenge" that Marlene Cupo started! She has all the links that you need to win!
I am trying to get all of my pictures over here from my facebook page, but not having any luck. If any one has some advise please let me know! Thanks
 I am going to start taking pictures of all of the pieces we have made right now and it will go up on my facebook.com/Artistry:Handcrafted Bead Designs page.
Let me know if you see anything you can't/or don't want to, live with out and I will help you out!
Our craft show at Concord Mall was good.  We had a lot of people come up and see our new pieces, they seemed to like them a lot.

Hello Everybody, Welcome to my very first blog!
I am in equal measure, thrilled and terrified!  I have never done anything like this.
Please forgive any missteps and misspellings.  I will try to keep them at a minimum.

Here is a little history about us.
The HCBD in our name means Hand Crafted Bead Designs.  That is really long to type, so for here it is just the initials.
Artistry HCBD is the brain child of my daughter, Melody, and I.  We have been creating beaded jewelry designs for just a few years.
We are very ....umm...unusual?.... people.  As such, we create odd, asymmetric, unusual bead designs.
I will try to get some pictures on here just as soon as I can.
Melody likes to do wire wrapping and she is experimenting with that. We have just started playing with polymer clay, that is our newest baby.
I really like to work with chain and saying tags and crystals  I love crystals!

I am hoping that this blog will be fun and funny for everybody.

Thanks for coming to see me and have a BLESSED DAY!
