Attempting to watch the Oscars tonight but I'm not seeing any sign of my baby daddy a.k.a. Johnny Depp. No Johnny Depp, no Oscar watching.

I'm on a massive creative high but my job is still getting in the way. :/ They know that I don't want as many hours but they keep giving me more every week. It's part-time but even the full-time employees are getting more days off than I am. Boo.

But my next day off (which seems faaar in the distance) shall involve bead (and other shiny objects) shopping! :D

I haven't taken pictures yet of the pretties that I got from eBay but here's my recent hauls from Michael's and JoAnn's.

Michael's:

Sparklies! I couldn't help myself. I plan on using the seed beads mainly for my embroidered projects.

Jo-Ann's:

I label with "Bead Soup" caught my attention because I love a random variety of beads so I flipped the container over to check out the contents and saw a bunch of sparkley beads so I was sold.

Though I'm not a big fan of the mother-of-pearlish flower charms... And there are a ton of fish hook earrings, which are pretty useless to me since my earlobes are sensitive to metals. There are also a ton of small pin backs which is great because I'm into making brooches but they're way smaller than what I need.

However, here's the BEST part of this package!

Yummy.
