Why I love what I do

Some say creativity is the spice of life.  Just as the great Barthold Georg Niebuhr said, "It is better to create than to be learned, creating is the true essences of life."  As I sit there and ponder that quote I get so excited as I remember the first time I was introduced to creating my Beautiful Beaded Watches.

The story simply goes that I had a friend that wanted to teach me how to make watches.  I avoided it for a while and then I remember thinking how much fun that might be after all.  So I went and I had such a great time and I wanted to make more and more. Not only were they fun to make, I could make one to match every outfit I had.  I felt I struck gold!   And I did.   But the gold that I struck isn't the gold that you might think it is.   The gold is when I decided to start making them for others and how much joy it brought into their lives. That is the real gold I struck, the ability to create something so fun and so beautiful that brings joy to others.

My Beaded Watches are more than just an incredible piece of jewelry and fashion, they are a statement.  A statement of the joy of giving.  The statement of love for others and the statement of creating more beauty in this world.

Creating more beauty in this world one watch at a time,

It's about Time

"Excuse me miss, but do you have the time?" 

As you look at your watch you realize that you actually don't have the time.  Not because your watch stopped ticking or the battery went dead, but because you literally do not have the time.  You don't have the time to get every thing done in the day, you don't have time to cook a full meal for your family, you don't have the time to stand there giving friendly strangers the time.  And the watch you are looking down at might even show to the world your lack of time.  How so?  Let me explain...

Some of us can't afford the nicest Rolex watches or watches inlaid with diamonds and rubies.  But we can afford to have a watch that stands out and makes a statement.  A watch that says, "I have the time to succeed, I have the time to look great, I have the time to put myself together."    Making a fashion statement isn't just about being able to put colors together in an artistic palette of clothes and jewelry.  It is also about showing the world the beautiful side of you that most people don't see.  The fun, vibrant, exciting and unique side of you. 
If you walk outside in a great outfit and a watch that says, "Eh, I just didn't care to finish the look today", you could be sending the wrong message.

Choosing a watch to match your outfit in the fashion world of today is just as important as choosing the right necklace or ring.  With the Beautiful Beads watches you can be sure that you are sending the perfect message at the perfect 'time'.  You can choose the perfect watch with the perfect colors to match any outfit.

So many fun ideas

I have been having so much fun creating incredible and unique beaded watches and having even more fun 'watching' others give them as gifts and wear them around town. 

Here are some of the comments I have been getting from my customers...

Tamra Carter says; "My mom LOVES her new Beautiful Beads watch!! it is absolutely perfect and she said it was by far the most beautifully handcrafted watch she has ever owned!! Thank you for helping me become her favorite kid!" 

Victoria says; "I get compliments on my Beautiful Beads Watch whenever I wear it!  They are great.  My next color is the gold beads I think.  I can't wait!  

She even included a picture...
