Death by Chocolate…
I have a cookbook by that title. It is, of course, filled with sinfully delicious and decadent desserts that incorporate chocolate. As I’ve worked on the Sea Dragon Wrist Wrap Variation, and played with the enormous variety of dazzling, sparkly iridescent beads used in this as well as many other projects, the thought occurred to me that “Tantalized by Shimmer” could very well be a fitting title for a beading book. There is something so alluring about beads that shine with flashes of light. They captivate one’s eyes with their mesmerizing, almost hypnotic effect, begging one to draw closer to scrutinize and touch. They are magic!
Sounds good, but that picture looks like a snake skin, eww.

Marica, articles and tutorials are great fun to write, but I don’t know if I’d have the fortitude to write an entire book…especially if there were deadlines involved. I don’t perform at all well when under pressure!

I love the pattern, the colors, and the shimmer. I always look forward to seeing what you’re doing with the little beads. This one doesn’t disappoint.
