In addition to working on my beaded Beatles Yellow Submarine, I have quite a lot of other beading related things to do. The first thing is organizing my seed beads. Here is the latest progress on that project:

I've been working on transferring my beads into separate ziploc bags. I think that this will be a good method, because the bags take up less space, and I'll be able to organize them by colour easier. Above, is the pile I completed so far. I've been putting each bag into this 5-liter plastic container until I clean out my entire seed bead drawer. I think this is about half of my seed bead stash. We'll see when I'm finished, though...

Also, I've been throwing the empty plastic containers into this bag. There are quite a lot of them. I was thinking of trying to reuse them somehow. I usually hate getting rid of useful things like this, but it's not like I won't acquire more of them in the future. LOL. So, I'll probably keep a few, and get rid of the rest. If you have any suggestions on how to reuse these containers, I'd love to hear them:)

So, I plan to work on this a little more this weekend. I also plan on working on my official website, and that requires quite a bit of thought, to say the least. I hope to have that finished in the near future, and I can't wait to show you. Another thing on my to-do list is designing new business cards. While I love the cards I made with Rudy on them (you can see one of them on Nauma's blog), business cards must change as you/your business does. So, I might make a couple of new ones...I guess I'm beginning to take this beading thing seriously! I don't think I've ever been so dedicated to something in my entire life, and it really has become a full-time hobby for me. Now, if I could just turn it into a full time job... :0

Oh, before I forget, (for those who haven't noticed this) I created another page just for all my banners and other links. It is called Push My Buttons, and you can access it from my Blogger profile. That is where I'll keep all the banners, buttons, and wallpapers I create. If you'd like to add a Lone Beader banner to your site, all you have to do is copy & paste the HTML onto your web page. This is also where I have added a beading blogroll. All blogs listed are ones that I currently subscribe to via my Google Reader. Please stop by and check it out. If you have a beading blog that you update regularly, and you don't see yours on the list, please drop me a line if you'd like to be added.

Now, it looks like I have some work to do... :0
