Sublime:
Most of my necklace is from a lady who lived in a mansion on a lake ~with a view of hundreds of swans. She enjoyed her lake view while swimming in her private indoor pool.

Ridiculous:
Other beads are from a homeless bead collector who wanders in the streets of Berkeley with her luggage filled with beautiful antique Tibetan turquoise -but at very high prices.
She borrows cell phones from strangers to make appointments with me...She is a modern day nomad.
