Once again the Elk's Lodge in Pompano Beach was a perfect venue for a beautiful and busy show.

The Down the Street Bead Show is a regular there, and the event was running smoothly and has been delightful for all.

You were able to find the trendiest beads as well as classic ones, and the selection of merchandise was unmatched as always. Some of you even could take classes and learn new techniques or create new designs.

To all of you who helped make the Neverending Necklace grow: Thank you for dedicating beads! You may visit them here as soon as the current section is mounted on the panel: >>>

Of course I'd like to extend a warm "Thank You" to Audrey and Rick who made this show possible and had welcomed the Love & Peace Project so many times! Without support from The Down The Street Bead Show the necklace would not be nearly as long.

And this time the Elks outdid themselves: the food they served was outstanding - kudos to a great chef and the friendly volunteers! I am looking forward to returning as many times as I possibly can.
