Handcrafted Designs-Road Trip #2

Last year I found Karen's small shop at a Flea Market on one of our road trips.  I returned this year to buy some jewelry for my grand-daughter who just had her ears pierced, my daughter, and myself.  When I couldn't find "exactly" what I wanted, Karen whipped up a pair of earrings to match a necklace in no time flat.  Karen comes from a family of 11 children and early learned how to be flexible and to please.  Both qualities that come in handy in her own small business.

  7. And what a great smile she has! Coming from a large family I can indeed say that "flexibility" is a key word to getting along. I love all those little boxes of beads!
