Here’s a look at the beads I bought at The Down The Street Bead Show.

It was hard but, once again, I stuck to my Fall color palette. I love the sterling silver links on the left. The beads (also starting from the left) include: Black Labradorite, Agate, Australian Opal, Zebra Jasper, Rock Crystal, Ruby Red Quartz, Mookaite Jasper, Freshwater Pearl, Mother of Pearl, Bronzite and Eyeball Agate. Yum!
Took me forever to take a photo of them but here are the beads I purchased at the Rings & Things Bead Tour when it hit Charlotte.

I tried to stick to the color palette I plan to work with for Fall. There are a few strands of sterling silver beads on the left. The stones (also starting from the left) include: Astrophylite, Hematine, Tourmalated Quartz, Ruby, Crackle Agate, Garnet, Kyanite, Lapis, Blue Sponge Coral, White Coral, Fossil Coral, African Opal, Brown Zebra Jasper, Sunstone, Botswana Agate, Smoky Quartz and finally, Picture Jasper. I can’t wait to begin working on some new pieces!
