I let my sister use it a lot, and I still have some projects I would like to do with it. I don't plan on buying more once it's gone. I wanna do some more stuff like this:

I wish there were more charity type, community places around where I live, but the city I live in is kinda rich, and mostly concrete and road (it's like a giant suburb bleh). I live here to go to school :/

Maybe you could take it to a vet hosp/home for them to use in crafts?

Yeah I prefer to work with natural materials. I used to work with sculpey a lot, but I just prefer natural materials now. Unfortunately I still have a LOT of sculpey left

Hmm... I love art and have made art my whole life. -what ever medium you choose, I would try to keep it simple and classy. -cylindrical glass with out lots of swirls and bubbles and stuff seems good. -And wood and bone stuff is always fresh...I personally think sculpy and cheaper plastic stuff looks lame, but to each his own...

I love that fish!!!!! I have a tat of my first goldfish, Emily on my foot'] I'll put a pic in my photos, lol

Hello again friends!

So I've started making some.... I'm just starting so there will be a lot more coming, but this is some of what I have so far

I guess they are more or ornaments than beads, haha And here are some that I am working on now

I've been working with a variety of different sized loops as well. I have fairly small dreads, but I know most people have bigger ones, so a lot of the ones I make don't fit on my dreads at all haha

I also made this cute little leaf chain.... here's a picture of how it looks in dreads:
