These are some beads from my drawer and a storage box or two that I'm working with. I compose necklaces using clear bags to pull together beads based on color and size. This group is mostly Venetian fancies and millies with a few others. Some of my newest acquisitions are here as well as a few beads from my earliest days of collecting.

What is unseen are the many hours invested just to get to this point... but they are still just bags of beads... and a yellow jacket necklace I can't seem to finish for lack of the 'right' center bead.

I'll post the photo separately so I don't lose my text.
