I love that it says “taking care of beadness!” in your header. That’s pretty fantastic.

I am definitely fascinated by the jewelry making process.

I guess my question: do you have to have tiny, slender fingers like I imagine one would in order to make jewelry? While I have a long fingers, I’m afraid I’d totally mess up any piece of jewelry I tried to start. ;-/

cari finally weighs in….

honestly, i say go for it. if people like it and are going to BUY them, who am i to stand in the way of such beady prowess? and seriously, the chances that someone is going to be wearing the exact same jewelry as me in fargo are pretty slim to be honest.

and if they do? heck, i’ll tell ‘em i was the one who inspired the brainchild. i don’t mind sharing at all. because seriously, tab, these are BEAUTIFUL and i can’t WAIT to get the earrings in my ears and the necklace around my neck. you ROCK. thank you so much.

I’m with Mary Petrie. Ask Cari, and say you’ll wait until after the wedding to list them. Great work!

GORGEOUS! You have talent, my dear. Love the necklaces & earrings. Great designing all around. If I ever get to make a trip down the aisle, I’ll definitely keep you mind for some assistance! xoxox

Beautiful jewelry. I think Allison’s earrings are my favorite.

Has Cari let you know what she thinks of you making duplicates? I would think that it would be okay, but you might want to wait to release them until after the wedding. That way the wedding jewelry would be the originals.

I LOVE them all!! How very fun and unique to get something so special from the bride. I can’t even imgaine the creativity that went into each piece. I would say Etsy them.

I love the flower girl’s bracelet! I wouldn’t mind seeing a long necklace like that.

As for whether or not to post them to your Etsy site– they are all pretty, so I’d vote “yes” but I guess Cari would be the best one to make that call?

And finally, regarding your letter to the blog itself– is that why Joe’s been geeking you out lately?

WOW! Where do I start…I really want to go to a bean show with you! When Daniel & I where in Hong Kong we went to a bead store to buy beads for my little sis. After reading a few of your post & looking at those gorgeous pictures, I now want those beads back…she probably doesn’t even use them! lol

How skilled are you? If I saw a necklace that I like could you replicate it? Hhhmm I love that you’re blogging about your bead work. Keep of the great beading!
