Bead Show

My mom and I went to the BeadsWorld Annual Bead show a few days ago. The last time we went it was held in the Pennsylvania Hotel across from Madison Square Garden. In recent years they switched the venue to a show space in Chelsea. The show is now smaller with fewer independant artisan vendors, sadly this meant there were few unique items. I did see two booths with old roman glass; that was the first time I'd seen that available. I was tempted but I just didn't want to stock up without having a better concept in place. Still, the selection was nice and we picked out some nice items to make a beautiful necklace for her.
