The Bead Survey and Sunday Links


  Today I will finish this necklace.  Next week on the John Bead blog I will focus on shell and coral.  I did a survey on my Facebook page wondering if people preferred one glass bead over another.  These new coral beads need to be showcased.  I have to say, the results were mixed.  One or two people like each of the options.  I assumed there would be one overwhelming choice......copper, amber, black or green.  I would be happy to get your opinion today!  If I still can't decide.  I think I may do a draw.
