Next on my list was an place 8 miles away in LaMesa called The Bead Boutique.

Also a small shop with an older lady (but not a craft explosion like the other place). After circling the store a number of times I started asking questions. This lady was awsome!! She helped me decide what to get and suggested a few techniques. As people kept coming in and out to get tips and show off what they had done I felt more impressed. The lady had regulars. Hmmm...
One of the ladies that came through was showing off a coiled necklace wich I thought was awsome. I was told it was easy enough to do. So the sales clerk showed me what I needed and...get this...spent 10 minutes showing me how to do the coiling. I had my own personal class right there at the counter. I was giddy.
And to make the magic all you need is this "gizmo"(aka the coolest thing EVER!) and some wire.

This is my first attempt wich I am trying to put into a necklace of some sort.

Needless to say...I am all over coiling now. And I can't wait to show you all the finished product...
Ok. This is the finished product. I am very happy with it. :)
