Bead-dazzled

For a birthday celebration for a friend of ours, we went to a jewelry place called All Wired and Bead-Dazzled to make jewelry! It was really fun. At the beginning the lady was talking about jewelry and how it's made, and she asked how many years we thought it took to make this little pearl. No one spoke up, so I said 2 years, and it was right! I was rather impressed with myself, even though it was a total guess.
Mom and Anna both made necklesses, and I made earrings. Three people got their names drawn to win their choice of earrings, a bracelet, or a bead magazine, and I was one of them. I got earrings, but there was so many to choose from! After a long and painful process, I finally picked out a pair. :)
The one's I made are on the right, and the other pair are the one's I won. Mom's neckless is the bigger one, and Anna's the smaller.
