Over at Fire N Sand, there is a drawing for the bead of the month and she suggests it would make the wettest bracelet. Is that a new term for awesome? Because that's what I think of the bracelet that bead will make.

I have some beads in the 2010 product review in Step by Step Wire Jewelry magazine. To celebrate, I am giving an issue away. But you have to stop by Glass Addictions to see how to enter.
