Cara's Pick of the week: Dogon "Donuts"
"Tim and I have already bought two strands of these beautiful beads. Besides blue, there are some gorgeous white ones in the store. Gee, Tim, get on the ball and put them up on website already! Hmmmmm.... maybe when I get my next paycheck! LOL."

Tim's Obsession of the Week:
April 26th; Wow, dio I live these Olive Green Millefiori beads... so odd looking with the yellow and red "eyes". Gotta buy a few for my next necklace project!
My pick for this third week of April is the very pretty Blue Millefiori Elbow Bead I just listed. I must admit I over-looked these Venetian-made beads for years until I got a chance to really handle them! Amazing color!
"New pick of 2011: the Ghost Bead which also looks like it features alien grays on each bead. Very cool!"
"I highly recommend this delicious "Bag o' Beads" for anyone who loves to collect the stuff and walk around with beads rattling around in your pockets."
"Bauxite is a weird stone... I mean, it looks like meat and it's nice and heavy. A must use in my next batch of jewelry!"
