Halloween Already?

August is my favorite month. Here in Maine most of the evil biting insects are gone by August but it's still fully summer. There are wild blueberries and gorgeous sunsets and fresh food aplenty in the garden. There are chanterelles (a wild mushroom that tastes better than lobster or bacon) to be found in the woods and wildflowers abound.  It's also the month that I first start to make Halloween beads. I've just started feeling confident making my own murrini, so the possibilities of new designs are better than ever. To find these beads or some like them, here's the link to my store.  http://stores.ebay.com/European-Charm-Beads-by-Mandy?_rdc=1
