fedup.. thank you, I shall... I would just hate to damag anything that meant something to anyone.. I am known for my clumsiness!!
Valli.. I am assuming these are vintage and original beads from when you were a lass???.. so I guess they'd be perfectomundo... Don't suppose you have the appropriate headdress thing do you? feathers would be good but I guess I can always arrange with the cat for a crow to be dragged in!! .. Had another mouse and almost 2 squirrels today!
