It's Christmas!

   It's Christmas in March!!!!  

     The new Barbara Becker Simon book, "Metal Clay Beads" came today, (a whole month early.)  I only had time to skim through it but it looks like a good one. Unfortunately I am addicted to books.  I keep swearing that I am not going to buy anymore, but I bought two in the past week; a polymer clay book on millefiori techniques by Donna Kato and now this one.  (When will I stop?)


     My new flex-shaft and jump ring maker came today too!!  Wahoo!!!! What a way to help with the after vacation doldrums.  

      I got such a deal on the flex-shaft and jump ring maker.  (saved about $30 by buying both).  Contenti has a special going on right now that saves money if you buy them together.  For once I got lucky and didn't buy them earlier.  The flex shaft is a cheaper model, but Contenti swears it's a good one for the money.  Now I have to learn how to use both of these new tools.  (Darn, I have so many other things to do this month...... guess I'm going to be busy.)

   Oh, I just remembered.... I bought three books this past week.  My third book is "Making the most of your Flex-shaft" by Karen Christians.  Is there an AA for book addicts?
