Making a few bookmarks this weekend.  I get the crafty bug every once in a few years.  I like making these because they are easy (at least they used to be).  I noticed this time I had extreme trouble threading through some of those tiny, shiny hematite beads.  I think that means I need bifocals when I'm peeking under the bottoms of my glasses to see better.  Sigh...   I'm making a few, and if I have any contests in the next few months either here or at the VampChix site, I may include a bookmark as a bonus.  I think this pic is upsidedown and it's not quite clear because I just set it directly on the scanner and scanned it, but it's an idea of what I'm doing.  Some have red, a few silver pieces, and a lot of the hematite (my fav kind of bead).  Must find waxed string though, this slick stuff I have now makes it much harder to work with.
