Bead Unique Magazine

Hi everyone! It has taken me a few days to get back in the swing of things since I have been home from my trip. I am sooooo ready to go back to the sunshine!!!! However, the latest issue of Bead Unique Magazine did brighten up my spirits. I have two articles published this month. One is in the magazine and one on the Bead Unique Website. The necklaces are his and hers so I hope you try these out. Also Joanne Feller, managing editor of Bead Unique Magazine, reviewed my FlatWork book. It is always a nerve racking time for me when my books are being reviewed. You never know if an editor will like them or not. When I read what Joanne had to say about FlatWork I was on the road and trying to jump up and down in my Honda Fit ( a small car) strapped in by the seat belt. Thank you Joanne I appreciate your honest and heartfelt words.

So here they are. If you do not have a subscription to Bead Unique Magazine then you are miss out on the best beading magazine on the market. For your subscription write to me with your information. Contact me through my web site http://www.nicolecampanella.com/

I AM HOME!!!

Hello blogging buddies. I am home from my trip to the South West. It was a beautiful time for me. Believe me I did not want to come back to the cold Pacific North West. uhhhggggg. So I still have bags to unpack and hundreds of emails to answer and even as cold as it is here it is nice to be in my own space. Tomorrow is my birthday. 57 years young. Wow! I sure don't feel 57 more like 37. Here is a birthday photo of me a few days ago with good friends at a Mexican restaurant. The birthday part is getting whip cream on your face and a photo. We had lots of fun, and the Margaritas were good too!!!!

OK So I am still here

Good morning everyone. As you see I have not left for my trip yet. You know life sometimes gets in the way of the best laid out plans. So I will be leaving early tomorrow. However, this gives me the chance to share with you another one of my published articles. Also this month look for me in Bead Unique and Belle Armoire Jewelry magazines. Hope you enjoy them.

GOING GOING GONE

It is a beautiful day here in Florence, OR. The sun is out and the sea breeze is actually warm! Tomorrow I have another oral surgery. Uhhhgggg. It should not be as bad as the first one. This is just cutting away of some tissue around the new implant. Just the thought of it makes me ill. :) So enough of that. I have to be feeling better by Friday though, we are leaving for Arizona and I can hardly wait. My heart truly is in the desert. We will be traveling by car down the Oregon and California cost, stopping in to see bead friends and family. One special overnight stay will be in Salt Point, CA. Hhmmm like a second honeymoon. This is our "making memories" trip so it should be lots of fun. My etsy and artfire stores will be closed after Wednesday of this week so be sure to take advantage of the sales I have going in both store. When I return I will have some new bead goodies to list. In the meat time here is some beaded eye candy. See you all in May!
