The Bead Basket Offers Creative Work for Type A Hands

Recently, during a visit to the Bead Basket, here in Dublin, I was majorly impressed with the fantastic looking jewelry concepted, designed and strung together right there in that small store.
Not just fashion jewelry that I wouldn't mind wearing, but necklaces and earrings that top the creativity charts, causing their wearers to become compliment magnets wherever they go.

Now, as I've said before, accessories go a looooong way in taking your wardrobe from average to exceptional. But if you want to go even a step further to "one-of-a-kind cool" definitely visit the Bead Basket. It's not like WalMart or Belk (which I love by the way) where half the people in town are sporting the same outfits. The Bead Basket's jewelry sets, made from high quality materials in eye-popping colors, are unique to their creators and can only be found right there.

And if you're the crafty kind, you can make your own bead creations there. Just don't get tangled up in chain, like I did. Most people stick to necklaces, earrings, bracelets...you know, regular items. But, I was thinking, it'd be cool to take beading a step further stringing unusual wearables, household items and gifts, such as: eye-glass frames, electrical cord covers, chandeliers, water hose sparklies, jeweled thumb tacks, beaded head gear for loved ones with braces, bra-straps, pace maker lead covers and iPod and cell phone wire covers. While I haven't attempted any of these, there's nothing stopping you.

Look for Bead Basket jewelry pictures tomorrow, when my computer isn't acting like a spoiled, defiant two year old.
