Several weeks ago I was visited by two throwbacks from another age in pirate-like costumes that reminded me of a Johnny Depp film. Today it was all about gaga for Lady Gaga, who is performing tonight at the Tacoma Dome. These young women had a long wait in make up and stillettos for their hero. The pirates were on their way to pay a visit with their pals at the Society for Creative Anachronism. I love costumes. Although I don’t donn them often, I would love to appear at the Market in a ball gown some day. Maybe next week?

Two very handsome pirates.

Ready for Lady Gaga's performance

Next, there’s Amber and her Mom, Vicki. They come by every single week and are my most frequent visitors (and avid eca fans!!). Amber loves LONG earrings though She decided to make off with this entire array of deep purple/blue cubes. The middle set I made first. Within minutes of finishing them and hanging them on my display, Amber came along for the first time and asked if she could get them one bead longer. I said, “come back in 1/2 hour.” She came back and claimed the long set, then several weeks later bought the original set. The single bead set I made because these were my very LAST three beads of this kind. I don’t know if I will ever find them again! But that’s what makes these special…they are definitely one of a kind. Thank you Amber and Vicki!!

Shortest to longest on this side. I love that Amber thinks like I do.

Three in one, longest to shortest.
