Issue 4 Cover

Spring All Year Long!

So how do you get that "spring" feeling of inspiration all year long? I bet if you look into your bead box, it is brimming full of "bright"ideas! That's the thing about beads; they are suitable for any time of year, and I don't think there is a speicfic season for purple, green, or blue beads.
