freely floralilia, the official journal of pointless posting.

"mischief, no doubt", I hear some of you saying.

well...yes,  you are close.  The beading hobby, turned into home based business, turned into starting a bead society, turned into opening a real bricks and mortar...get this...

turned into a bona-fide BEAD STORE called Buttercup Beads.

Some of you (Judi) knew this already - and some of you are just hearing (reading) this now.  I don't know who all is left here...but I know that some of you diehards are here, and hardly dead.

In any event, Mr B. (lovetrain - mr. b) got me to thinking about blogging again, and how much fun we all used to have here....

so I thought I would do a little date=up, as slac would say.

now don't get all excited - I might not post again for another six months...but then again, who knows - i might just link to my new website and post on a regular basis...

not that anyone is reading anymore.

but, ya just never know.

ya just never know.

if any of my loyal subjects are still wandering round these dusty, dank halls of the infamous aol blog-oh-sphere - drop in, and let me know, won't you?

until then - check out me new digs (professional digs anyway) - and if you happen to live in the area - stop on in - i'd love to see you.

smooches,

flora
with the beadazzled mind.

below is a little sampling of my lampwork florals - oh yes, i'm a woman on a oxy/propane torch now too - blame vivi.

  Well, I am still here, and wish I could drop by for a class, or just to hang out and visit. Good luck with the store, and have a Joyful Holiday Season. Margo
