I love to bead and recently I've found myself in over my head. I started making beaded lanyards for some of the folks I work with. Before I knew it people were coming out of the woodwork asking me if I was the Lanyard Lady. I'd laugh and say I guess I am. I had so many orders I was having trouble keeping up with them. I'm really sick of making these lanyards and I've lost my desire to bead. Everytime I sit down to make something new there's that list of backorders stareing me in the face and I feel guilty for starting something new. If that isn't bad enough when people get them caught on their desk and they break they bring me a baggie full of beads and ask me to fix their lanyard. It's not that I don't appreciate the business it's just that I'm really frustrated making the same thing over and over again. Any suggestions???
