New Year: New Updates | Beaded Bells
https://beadedbells.wordpress.com/2011/01/04/new-year-new-updates
A year-long remembrance of my grandmother and her family. New Year: New Updates. January 4, 2011. So, here it is the new year and already I’m a bit behind. Already. And I know you’re on the edge of your seats wondering if I finished my bells. Well, yes and no. Yes, I finished the sets of 12 bells for each of my kids. That’s 48 bells. And yes, I also made the grape vine trees. But, no, I didn’t finish my own bells. Or do you think she always wore a dress and pearls to frost cakes? Taken in the apartment a...

December | 2009 | Beaded Bells
https://beadedbells.wordpress.com/2009/12
A year-long remembrance of my grandmother and her family. December 29, 2009. Well, I’ve officially started my project (in addition to this blog). Okay, maybe not. Since I haven’t yet started making bells. But I did order a kit. I googled beaded bells and came up with several links. I found this pattern. Which at quick glance looks nicely detailed and instructional. I also found this one. Then came Marya’s suggestion. And sure enough, there it is. The same bell my grandmother made. New Year: New Updates.

Von Himmel Hoch: A Family Fantasia | Beaded Bells
https://beadedbells.wordpress.com/2010/12/16/von-himmel-hoch-a-family-fantasia
A year-long remembrance of my grandmother and her family. Von Himmel Hoch: A Family Fantasia. December 16, 2010. I think it’s reasonable to say our family is somewhat musical. Overall, there’s a fair number of us who can sing on key, plunk a tune on an instrument, or at least appreciate the gathering together and making of music. At Christmas, this family musical-ness is epitomized by one particular piece the German Christmas Song. Does anyone know the history of this piece? From where did we get it?

60 Beaded Bells | Beaded Bells
https://beadedbells.wordpress.com/2011/01/20/60-beaded-bells
A year-long remembrance of my grandmother and her family. January 20, 2011. Well, look at this! Twenty red bells. Twenty white bells. Twenty green bells. And along with the bells comes a full year of blogging. Such stick-to-it-tiveness is rarely seen in my somewhat ADD personality and I must admit I jingled that last completed bell with a bit of bravado. I’ve also learned a lot about our family. I’ve learned factual things, like my grandmother’s first name, Ruth. As we historically know it, may differ fr...
