I seem to be spending too much time blagging on the interwebs and no time designing and creating.
Does this sound like a familiar problem?
You think "I'll just go and twitter a little" then before you know it you've entered several giveaways, followed a few more blogs, cruised a few new sites and Oooops! goodness me where has the day gone??
So, yesterday I set myself the goal of making 10 lampwork beads (I'm just a novice),
and then making 10 bracelets.
The bracelet making is quite time consuming as I have been making irregular, funky ones and there is a great deal of rummaging through bead boxes to be done.
Once I have a pleasing array, the stringing is the easy part.
How did I go?
Well, I made 15 glass beads, just basic baby, beginner beads.
These are the ones I have made this week.
Some are still stuck on the mandrells - Oh, well, that probably happens to everyone!
I made 7 bracelets late last night and had to give in and go to bed, but I made the remaining 3 this morning.
How do I feel?
Great!!!
I feel like I finally acheived something.

oooops! guilty of wasting time on the web when I should be creating ;)
But Wow Tess, you have inspired me!
look at what you have made, such Gorgeous, Gorgeous Bracelets!!!
Way to go!
Yes, guilty here too. So much so that friends send me funny emails about wasting time on the web.
Wow! That's quite a large number! Good job with getting all those done =D
I've made the conscious decision and limited my web perusing to 20 minutes, twice a day. Wow, I get soooo much more creative work done :)
I need some of that discipline over here please!
Excellent work!
I am putting my hand up for "wasting" time in cyberland too!
I love your new bracelets Tess - well done :-)
Good on you!! That's quite a goal - well done :)
For beginner lampwork beads, your on the right track and doing fine :)
Ahhh, the blogging Vs creating Vs life dilemma!
Setting a goal sounds like a great idea to get stuff done, then blog... Especially if it leaves you feeling great!
