BAO Items of the Week

It’s been a strange week…. after having found one of my designs copied, and having confronted the culprit and asked her to at a minimum credit me with the original design… the outcome was a very rude and public reply, calling me names… I sort of lost the desire to bead… or do anything else for that matter… the whole incident left me depleted and sad… However, the response from the amazing beading community was so warm and supportive… and I can say that after having “mourned” for a week or so… I’m now excited to start beading again… sometimes it’s good to take a bit of time off!!!

This week the BAO has put together an amazing collections of goodies – go to the BAO blog and check out what offers are attached to these beautiful items:

  1. don't bother about the copycat... if she doesn't want to design her own then she will always be tagging behind you.
    Extra bonus: you have a super fan !

  3. Thank you, Triz, for visiting my blog today.

    It is unfortunate that some people do not rely on their own merit for work...I am glad that you had a break and the bracelet is lovely.

    I am inspired by your organizing of your space. I need to work on my own space this weekend!

  5. I'm just sorry your "bead rest" was caused by such an ugly incident. (I'm dealing with a Hungarian cat right now.) But I am glad that you are re-energized. *hugs*
