We&#8217;ve both been known to bring baggies with our current projects to the playground &#8211; nothing like beading on the go, while trailing behind the boys. \u00a0Please welcome Julie Anne when you can as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/?attachment_id=7439\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7439\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7439\" title=\"Julie-Anne's-blog,-The-Peaceful-Bead\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-blog-The-Peaceful-Bead.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"514\" height=\"148\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-blog-The-Peaceful-Bead.jpg 514w, http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-blog-The-Peaceful-Bead-150x43.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-blog-The-Peaceful-Bead-300x86.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 514px) 100vw, 514px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/?attachment_id=7440\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7440\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7440\" title=\"Julie-Anne's-Rosary\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-Rosary.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"423\" height=\"577\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-Rosary.jpg 423w, http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-Rosary-150x204.jpg 150w, http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/Julie-Annes-Rosary-219x300.jpg 219w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 423px) 100vw, 423px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">\u00a0Rosary by Julie Anne<\/h5>\n<p>Our beading community continues to grow, and we each have something unique to offer. \u00a0Some of us blog daily, others like myself , maybe once a week. \u00a0We each have different styles and come from different backgrounds, but we all have something to share. \u00a0Thank you for visiting my blog today &#8211; I always appreciate your visit! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>-Cindy<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sweetbeadstudio.com\/?attachment_id=7441\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-7441\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I have some exciting news to share. \u00a0Our bead blogging community has grown by two new and wonderful blogs!
