Bead-girl

Beading is so much faster than knitting! Last weekend, I bought way more charms than I needed for my charm bracelet, so I've been wanting to buy more beads and make another one. I was thinking a very girly-girl pink and white one. I went to The Bead Monkey before going into work, but I couldn't find just the right pink. I did find plenty of other stuff, though. So, I spent last night doing a little beading. Here's the charm bracelet:

Bijoux Bead had a few bracelets made of furnace glass in the store and they were really cute, so I decided to make one of those, as well. I already have a ton of purple earrings, so I decided to skip the earrings:
