People think that leisure just happens…

and sometimes it does, but more often than not, good liesure takes some planning. If you’re going to do it right, you’ve got to take time. Forgetting about responsibilities, kicking back and not just being in the moment but customizing your moment to omit the constant swirl of chitter chatter in your brain is an art. This might be one of the main reasons that summer exists.
Beads are really good for such a thing. With beads, there’s not as much emotional freak out. Beads force you to concentrate just a bit more on the process at hand, because if you’re not paying attention, you might end up with something waaaay weirder than a necklace. You could accidentally veer into key fob territory, or a headband that’s highly uncomfortable, which is, like, totally okay! Truth be told, if anyone’s championing impractical get-ups, it’s CraftNight.
We’re going to end May with a Panda Bead Craft, you get a little clippy thinger with it, it’s adorable, a cute little kit.But wait, there’s MORE! I’ll be bringing a host of OTHER beads, so that you can embellish, adorn, incorporate or completely replace the panda with your very own bead idea. There’s only one letter separating a bead idea with a bad idea. Bad Ideas RULE.
Oh yeah, I’ve been embracing the Long Form lately, check it out. Reading long and interesting articles on all kinds of fascinating stuff makes it feel like the warmest season of the year, just need a hammock and some spare hours… where did I put those pesky hours anyway? Gotta be around here somewhere… Sheesh…
See you at the Craft Table,
