Yeah, I'd say I've gotten into beading long strand necklaces. I know there are other, fancier designs I could make, but something about long strands that I can loop and fiddle with is so satisfying. Plus I discovered the wonder that is AliExpress and the prices for mineral beads, and muahahahah. I'm fine with waiting almost two months if it means I can get multiple strands of different size beads of, for example, smokey quartz, for under $30. 

This was Sunday's project: Larvikite (also called black moonstone), black Czech glass beads lined with silver, and my silver hag's hand pendant. It's 70" long, because I don't understand subtle.

AliExpress is the WIN if you don't mind waiting. Himself used to tell me that I was supporting the Chinese economy all on my own.
