Happy Blue Moon day to all,
Here is a group shot from last year. Most of these beads, except the big strand, are now owned by someone else. But he does treat them well.

Howdy Thomas,
Here are some "moon" beads for your perusal. These average 30mm x 30mm.
This post, literally, took my breath away. Which is not to minimize Thomas' first and second posts, which are classically gorgeous. I guess I was already in a weakened state by the time I viewed Carl's beads. Jan, your post brought a smile, as well. I'm glad the beads' new owner is caring for them. (grin)
My younger daughter is reading Dracula in preparation for the ballet in which she will dance this fall. She wants to understand the story and why the ballet mistress is choreographing the steps the way she is. Images of werewolves howling at the moon are ever present in our home right now. ;)
My older daughter is digging her heels in about packing for college. I, too, am fighting the emotions that go with this event in our lives.
These images have brought beauty and awe to my currently chaotic and intensely emotional life right now. I thank you for them.
