We recently had the Ava and Helena over to our house for a visit. The first day we talked, played games, talked, cooked, and talked some more in bed until the early hours of the morning. ;-)
The next morning was more of the same, but then it was time for beading. Helena had brought some of her things, and she wanted Melody to show her how to make jewelry. Ava joined them as well. I know from past experience that beading is not my thing, but I enjoyed visiting with them as they worked.
The special crimp beads were not co-operating that day. I think the necklaces took twice as long as they should have because of those stubborn beads. Mel even had a hard time with them, and she is an experienced beader. 
Melody decided to make a macrame (sp?) necklace this time. 
The finished products...Ava's, Helena's, and Mel's.
The necklaces turned out so pretty! Helena made some earrings too!
I told them they needed to model their work for me. 
We had a fun time with the girls and enjoyed getting to know them better!
