Your comment still has me laughing! I'd take my husband along just to have an extra neck to show off my beads! ( I'm terrible) My husband did not always go along with my buying beads. I had to prove to him that it was a good investment by selling some of my beads and designing necklaces! Fortunately, I did well enough for him to see that they are just not trinkets but, valuable heirlooms! I have recently reached the limit of my bead buying budget!! I will not buy any more unless something so wonderful comes along that I can't resist! Lets hope that that won't happen soon!!!!!
