Happy Beaders with Too Many Beads or Too Few Beads

Happy New Year and to all I wish you SUCCESS! Success in all your endeavours. I have many beads to convert to jewelry. It's simply amazing how one can have so many beads in such a - okay - midsized area. And yet, I can look at them and cry that I don't have enough! Tragedy, that's what it is. As an artist, I believe that I can create what ever it is that I want to create. So I got all these beads and have kind of depleted my stock and I suddenly believe that I don't have enough. Do you have this problem? My hands are itching to bead something. I'll let you know what I end up creating. I have enough beads to do several sets of jewelry. I have a mind that for some reason has not come to terms with it. Oh, my land! This is the dip in my beading career! Doesn't "beading career" sound nice! I plan to keep my beading career as I learn to market and sell my beads. That is what I need to learn. Perhaps the dip is only a shift. Perhaps as my supplies of beads has dwindled, I've felt more pressure to expand my business. I have noticed that as I have developed my business, there are many more facets that I need to explore. So maybe I don't have a beading career problem after all! In dealing with a smaller supply of what I need to make my hands happy, I am finding that there are other things that I need to learn. Marketing and selling for which I will need consistency also. That will feed my supply facet, and therefore keep me from crying about not having enough beads. That should make my hands happy too! I want happy hands!!!
