Tucson

We arrived in Tucson after a 6 hour drive and immediately went to the To Bead True Blue show. How fun! A shout out to Pam a long time blog reader who I met at the show, thanks for saying Hi!

And then there was Bronwen and Karen Ovington and Steff Korsage and Paula Best and Susan and Meredith from Beadalon and Julie and Sarah and Tracy from Tierra Cast and Susan with Wire Knitz and Perry from York and Jeannette from Beady Eyed Women and


Well let's just say I didn't get much shopping done with all that visiting!

Then off to the resort where all of the Create Your Own Style Swarovski events are happening.







And where this is the view from the balcony. The pool is heated and still too chilly for me to consider, although daytime temps are a balmy mid 70's, evenings are closer to mid 40's.

The evening brought many more visits with the Swarovski ambassadors, Katie from Fusion, Andrew from Green Girl.....all followed by a trend presentation with Swarovski's newest innovations and colors. The ellipse pendant, wow, the one and two-hole column beads, can't wait, the luminous green color, excellent!

It was a late night by my standards, but it was all good. Today, more shopping, more visiting, and tonight my first Swarovski class, Timeless Pearl Bracelet. And hopefully more picture taking!
