...and just can not get a good(I'd settle for decent) photo of these beads. Perhaps, it's because I'm just as unsettled about my composition. Maybe the photo will come when I am happy with the finished product.

...I had first seen them online, perhaps here and thought...'I like those." Then I was walking downtown and looked in the window of a store and there on a shelf was one perched on top, attached with wire as the knob, of a hand made ceramic tea pot.

I was tickled to see this and saw it as a sign that I must let one(or four as it happened) possess me.

Though, I was very tempted to buy that teapot...but, for once exercised a bit of restraint. Did I really need to start collecting teapots.
