I have to figure out how to make a spiral or a rope.  It really can't be that complicated.  I am serious when I say the only reason I didn't fail handicrafts is because my teacher felt sorry for me.  It's all true.  I have no idea how I got into beading.  People must like my stuff because they buy it; *smile*  I had a friend who never wore jewelry, and she bought my stuff.  Cindy was not the type to buy anything she didn't want, so it was the highest compliment ever.  She was even buried in a white necklace I gave her.  Just thinking about that makes me want to cry.  Wow, I don't know where all of that came from.  I must go get ready for work, and when I can, I must learn how to make a rope or a spiral necklace.  When they told my handicrafts teacher I made jewelry, she did not believe them.  *lol*  Maybe I'll have to show her my work, someday.  

Warm regards,

You guys are so creative! I wish I could look at your handiwork!
I made a few spiral necklaces, and my best one was made with seed beads as 
the main colour, and tube beads (I can't think what their correct name is 
right now), as the secondary colour. It gave the necklace such a nice look 
and texture.
