	Bumblebees When I was just a beginning beadmaker, my sister Barbara, who loves bumblebees, asked me to make one for her. The first bumblebee beads I made were awful, but I kept trying. Finally, I came up with a design that I liked, and these beads are the result. They’re fun to make in a variety of colors as well as the traditional black and yellow, and a pair of small bees make very cute earrings. Price:  Large bee $ 20, small bee $ 10 Sizes are approximate. Large bee is 1.25 inches, small is .50 inches Please inquire about color.
	Spiders I love them … from afar. The fact is I’m afraid of spiders and fascinated by them at the same time. Spiders are industrious, helpful little creatures that naturally keep pests down in the garden. Anyway, they’re beautiful on beads and these spiders don’t bite. Price:  $ 120-135 Size: approximately 2 inches in length. Please inquire about color.
	Snails After seeing some colorful snails in Florida, I thought they would look cute as glass beads. Please inquire if you’d like a specific color combination. Price:  $ 30 Size: approximately 1 – 1.25 inches in length. Please inquire about color.
