Hi my name is Kat, I live in Northern California, this photo above is of my husband and our little pups, Edie and Effie and us at Lake Tahoe California in September of 07. We live pretty close to Lake Tahoe, I am thrilled to live so close we can visit anytime we want, it's so beautiful there. I just love beading and all kinds of crafts, so I started this little store from my home. I also like quality so I buy the best quality beads I can find. I like lots of shapes and colors because I LOVE, LOVE, Shapes and Colors. I first started off making earrings & jewelry and later started doing beadwork with cross-stitch and safety pin art. All that has evolved into a very addictive hobby for me. I get inspired to make jewelry by nature and my surroundings along with colors as I've stated above and shapes! I love photography to, and working in my  flower garden. I also love to go to the beach and decorate our home and be with my family. I am married and have two kids a son and a daughter and also we have one granddaughter. I have three pets, Edie my little Chihuahua, she is sweet as can be and our new little puppy Effie a Chihuahua and Yorkie mix, a Chorkie and our 9 year old cat Tabitha. We have two adult kids and

 a granddaughter.

My favorite flowers in my garden are orange lilies, white and yellow daffodils. Easter is my favorite celebration Holiday and Spring my favorite season. My birthday is in April and many days my birthday is the day before Easter or the day after. Sometimes my birthday falls on Good Friday but I've never had a birthday land on Easter. Thanks for visiting my site. Please pop in and read my blog, ShinyMoonBeams. ~Kat
