Our small booth at the Pasadena Bead and Design Show

Our very first show in Pasadena!  We were happy with the results, a lot of people stopped by, bought, commented on our beautiful paper bead jewelry.  The paper beads hand made by men and women in the Philippines are so well made can often be mistaken for shells or real beads.

One of our displays that garnered so much attention is the paper bead skirt that Kayla made.  Our booth was so small we did not have any place for it we just had to prop it up on our table.

It was such a fun event, I just wish I had more time to go around and look in other booths, there were just so many beads, pearls, gem stones even beads made out cloth!  I wish I took pictures, maybe next time…..

Across from our booth is the Ckoop Beads, I will be writing about her in my next post, Sara makes amazing enameled copper beads, pendants and findings.

Not far from me, was a table of vintage lucite beads and did a little shopping.  I was like a kid in a candy store, well they do look like candies.

It is so hard to keep my hand off them and make them into something, most likely with paper beads.

I could just imagine a bunch of paper beads cascading down the petals of these beauties.

These beads are huge, I have a Wilma necklace or bracelet in mind for this one.
