For Those With Nothing Better To Do

                              My New Cottage Industry

I work in a middle school where we were told that we must wear our identification badges at all times this year.  The badges are attached to a lanyard with the school colors and logo, etc.  Frankly, this does not go with anything I own.

 So being the casual beader that I am, I made a beaded lanyard for myself.  I suggested to others in my school (female, of course) that if they wanted one, I would gladly make them one with their choice of beads.

Well, my little business really took off!  I have made probably 10 so far, and it seems like each week I get a new order.  It has kept me very busy outside of work and brought in a little extra money.

Here are pictures of some of lanyards I have made.  Frankly, the pictures don't do them justice, and in some instances the colors appear wrong, but you can get the general idea:

Let me know what you think by making a comment on the "Guestbook" page.
