Crafting these beads this afternoon brought me immense joy, especially knowing they'll be enjoyed by kids in the Pacific Northwest. These 16mm Soft Beads are destined for a kids' fishing expo where they'll be both displayed and utilized teaching our younger generation how to fish for Salmon and Steelhead using beads that "imitate" Salmon and Steelhead eggs. If just one child is inspired to trade screen time for the great outdoors, my mission will be accomplished. Donating these beads fills me with gratitude; they represent an opportunity to enrich the lives of today's youth. Last year, I had the privilege of teaching a kid that is special to me how to fish. Witnessing the joy that lit up his face each time we cast our lines off the dock warmed my heart. Soon after, his Grandma bought him his very first fishing pole and he was so excited to have his very own! It's my hope that these beads will encourage young anglers to embrace life's adventures and the wonders of the natural world. 🎣☀️
