Bead Soup Challenge

Well, I've rec'd my package of beads in the mail from Cindy and couldn't even wait a whole day before opening it! Was thrilled with what I rec'd and bunches of ideas for using the wonderful beads I rec'd are a swirling in my head, trying to get out! :) Am eager to get started, but the day job will have to come first, as the rent will need to be paid...so will have to wait until the weekend...
Because this is my first time at participating in a bead soup type challenge, I didn't realize that I needed to send Cindy a list with the beads, so emailed that to her today. Cindy has participated several times before and knew to include it, so I received one from her with the beads that she sent to me.  Ev
