I had a great time designing and beading the prototype, so I think this will be a fun project for beaders.

Because I can!
Do you remember asking your parents WHY??? and getting the answer "Because I said so!"? I used to hate that and anything else that seemed to represent the arbitrary power they had over me and my life.
Later in life I found myself asking why of my bosses and getting the adult version of that response - because the regulations require it, because the stockholders demand it, because the sky is cerulean blue today - and not liking it much better than I did as a child.
The other day, I created a set of beaded beads to illustrate a point I was trying to make in a blog post for Love My Art Jewelry - that size matters. Today, I have decided I want to give this choker away to one of my readers/fans.
Why, you ask. BECAUSE I CAN! That's the beauty of owning my own business, being my own best and worst boss: I am "the decider." Of course, without my fans/readers/customers, Sand Fibers wouldn't be possible in the first place, so I guess the real answer is BECAUSE I HAVE YOU!
If you'd like to see this silver-plated neck wire and the set of three beaded bead on your neck or the neck of someone you love, just leave me a comment below. Remember to include your email address. I'll use my nifty random number generator to select a winner next Wednesday morning.

Mirror Mirror
My brand-spanking new Mirror Mirror pattern is now available for direct download from my Sand Fibers shop on Etsy.
I really want to bead one of these for myself using black and gold ... or perhaps gold and palladium. I think it would be a real stunner!

Celebrating May!
What better way to celebrate the start of May than with a FIESTA!? In honor of this month - which may (pun intended?) be my favorite, I have reduced the cost of the Sand Fibers Fiesta pattern by 50%. On June 1, the price will go back up to $10.
Be well and get going!

ANOTHER Pattern Sale!
Seriously. I haven't lost my mind (or perhaps I have and just don't care), but I am ending April the same way I started it: with a 4 for 1 pattern sale on Sand Fibers! :D It's my "Deal for a Day" and will only be good until 2pm Eastern/Etsy time on Wednesday.
How does it work? Purchase and pay for one Sand Fibers pattern, for example, Narrow Cubism Diamonds
Leave the names of three other patterns (each valued at no more than the purchased one) in the Notes to Seller at check out. You can download the purchased pattern and I will email your three freebies (say that three times!) or you can wait for me to email all four patterns.
Speaking of downloading...all Sand Fibers patterns are now available as instant downloads on Etsy. Pretty cool, eh?!
Be well and get going! Oh, and thank you for making April a good month at Sand Fibers!
