[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Pony beads

[Sarah Calhoun]

Hi Tracey,

I purchase my pony beads at Hobby Lobby. They have them separated by color. If you watch for their sales, somethimes the beads are 50% off, but their regular price is reasonable.

Best,
Sarah

Tracy,

I purchased my pony beads online from Michaels and was able to go and pick them up. But they would have delivered them if I had wanted. Luckily, I had a ride from  my crafty friend. As for the sorting process, I am friends with the kids and there mother next door. I had the kids come over and sort my beads into zip lock bags in which I placed a braille card with the color name. Not everyone has that option I know, and the kids are growing like weeds, so soon I won’t have them as an option either.I’d better see if they can sort my mini pony beads before they get too old to be willing to do it. 
I used to visit a older neighbor who would help me with my sorting. If was helpful to me and also for her. She did not get out much and enjoyed the company. I haven’t seen her in awhile. She had been very ill. I should check on her, now that I think of it.



May God bless you.
