such as at a bead society meeting, or at Tucson bead shows. I love beads and wear them every day. But since there probably are fewer than 10 "bead people" in the entire county where I live, the beads I wear go pretty much unrecognized. If they are noticed at all, people know they haven't seen my beads at Ross or Macy's!
