Vroom, vroom... The Universe seems to have laid it on me to do this, so I'd better listen. The workload getting to this stage where I even understood what a "product launch" actually IS...has been rather insane really. A person better with numbers would have done what they do best and pay for all the rest, but I wanted understanding before unleashing that which should(theoretically) bring out

Now. Can he perform? (: Let's see now... To perform wisely(or at least provide User Experience the attention it deserves...for once!!...) ahem ...requires professional webhosting. On a shoestring. Less, actually! Therefor my reasoning in having backed up just ONE more time before 'calling it' a Web Presence(worth attracting attention to anyway): which speaks to scheduling*, which

"Half-measures availed us nothing..." During the process of learning to truly launch an important polymer clay "thing", and at the same time gaining not only the basic certainty that I lacked but also the certainty to go ALL IN, certain things have had to wait. But I'm catching up fast. The "hard" work is finally paying off. Starting to make canes again. Starting to feel like living again

Slice Log:

You're probably going to want to bookmark this, so I should take the opportunity to say that my site is back into Prelaunch! Beadopolis LIVES!! Anyhoo!! As expected, each and every slice prettymuch has a name due to its being locked in time somewhere back there. Guess I could have dated them sooner, somehow. Guess "random" works best...sometimes?! I'll do some different stuff with these, and

Slicey Days #3

2016-02-15T09:44:00.002-07:00

The best thing about the Slicey Ol' Days, was that you could always get caught up one way or another. ...of course, these are ancient. They were just all in one place, so I figured to get my 'old' texty stuff out of the way early so as not to confuse people with designs done using Canin' Able. So, no such "stick man fonts" are produced here, but these Pre- Canin' Able designs are

Football" Millefiori end slice, Circa 2002/Wes Warren(Beadopolis) On this side of "the pond", it's called a Football. Soccer balls are a better seller by far.While I did nail the color pretty close, and most of the lines were "okay", I was nonetheless disappointed. But perfectionism is truly a fault of mine(one I'm trying to break -in a big way!). This was a

I'll just start out randomly. Hard to get excited about stuff that's been boxed up for years. In fact, I'm suddenly hating this project for all the memories that will be dredged up along the way... But maybe it will turn out to be a worthwhile exercise. So here I go. One of my favorites...mainly for it's "burst" effect(and I like purple). In a new article by Lisa Clarke(Polka Dot Cottage)

Quantum Leap

2016-02-05T17:14:00.004-07:00

So, it turns out that part of living is transition. I've always feared change due to the fact that we moved around a fair bit in my younger days. So this whole 'process' of setting long term goals and expecting to reach them was somewhat daunting to me...because neither could I put the past behind. But, I've begun toward an end, and now it's time to celebrate the end of that beginning, and move

Creating Choice

2015-12-24T14:55:00.000-07:00

Are Ya'?...Or Aren't Ya'? See, I am preparing quite a surprise for all of you(yes, You!) who've continued to trust that(procrastination, addiction, and sheer terror of success aside) I've always meant what I've said. But it required context, so here goes... Each choice carries with it more power than we'll ever realize. So, while the worst 'mistake' may be in thinking that that "power" is

So before I forget about it, I need to address the past 'schmozz' with CraftEdu... I was invited, I came, I checked, I read the contract(a fine one, I suppose! Whatever!), and I chose not to sign that contract, but to "suffer my own path." Not that you care, but it was the responsible decision for that time, and -for all it matters- a good one! Simply for my having chosen to explore my own

During the 'long silence' I've been studying everything from Alcoholism to Zen...and people from Alberta to New Zealand. In fact, I have probably put more time and faith into this now than I can ever probably justify. Bu this is really the part that eats at me: so many people could have had their lives changed, their art improved, money made... So many people could have been doing

The website is https://beadopolis.ca You may recall my main website: www.customMadeBe@ds.com? Well, I was asleep at the switch one day -or one decade- and I guess the "hawks" got it. Oh well, I've lost practically everything before. I'll just have to get over that one too. I will be frank. I don't know where actual money will come from. People likely think I am greedy for not sharing, but

Well, this should be more interesting!
