About Me
- Robin
- I LOVE to learn new stuff, try new things, experiment, play, pick wildflowers one day and ride a motorcycle the next! Sometimes one thing leads to another, and a new pathway becomes a new passion... That's what happened in 1985, when I rediscovered a childhood delight in beading and developed an incurable case of Beadlust... the rest is history! Now... if you REALLY want to know about me, check out this post. ;>}

Happy Anniversary!! I have enjoyed the journey with you!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary and hopefully we'll be celebrating many more to come. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I remember, and enjoyed, many of these posts.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary....what a wonderful trip it is! And I can still remember how excited I was when I first saw your blog!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary, Robin. For someone who refused to get a computer for years, I thoroughly enjoy reading all the blogs. Working with you (and others) has been an enriching experience for me. We have all been blessed by your giving nature.

Hello Robin,
ReplyDeleteCongratulation on blogging for 2 years. I love blogging and never thought I would. I love the Beaded Quilt it is my very favorite. OH, BTW I post a photo of your new book Heart to Hands on my blog because I love it sooo much. It is very inspiration to me in many ways. Hugs Judy
Wait. I've been blogging longer than you??? I don't believe it! And, where did you get your idea for this post?? It is brilliant! :D
ReplyDeleteHappy blogaversary! :D
Happy anniversary !
ReplyDeleteGood idea to link to past posts - I realize I haven't read them all !
Hugs.
Thanks for providing a ton of inspiration! I find that blogging is really fun the longer you do it....it really does provide a diary of life.
ReplyDeleteI could have sworn ... but there must be something wrong with my time-feeling ... that your blog has been in existence for more than two years. Congratulations on perseverance and excellent, stable quality!
ReplyDelete"Beadlust" obviously has become part of your readers' life. I spend little time only in the internet, but even if I just have a look in a great hurry, the two addresses I will go to are my e-mail account and this blog.
Happy going for the blog-times to come!

They were just as wonderful the "second time around". Thanks for 2 years of inspiration --- I have loved every minute of reading you posts. Keep it up for at least 5 more years :-) [You'll still be going strong, but I think I may have slowed down a bit by then } Happy Bloggingversary.
ReplyDeleteYou answered my question about the bunnies in all your pieces. I noticed them almost immediately, and now the reason for them has been revealed. How cool to have a totem animal.
ReplyDeleteSusan
Happy Anniversary Robin! I look forward to each and every post your write!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Karen
Happy Anniversary and thank you for your blog. It's a real treat for those who like beadcrafts. And it was your blog where I read about spirit dolls for the first time. I like making them now, and when asked in the LJ about those dolls, I send those who ask to your page %)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on two years of blogging. I really enjoy reading your posts and seeing your beautiful, inspiring work. The only improvement would be . . .more posts! Thank you for all you do.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary, Robin.
