Last week, I had the incredibly good fortune to go on a cruise to Mexico with most of my family. In celebration of my parents’ 50th anniversary, my mom, dad, aunt, brother, sister-in-law, sister, brother-in-law, boyfriend and I all spent five days on a Carnival cruise that left from New Orleans. So much fun!
What does this have to do with jewelry/beading, you ask? Well, one of the highlights of the trip actually occurred on the trip home. On our way from New Orleans to Memphis, we stopped off in Ponchatoula at my favorite bead store, the Turquoise Coyote. Talk about awesome selection and terrific prices! And the service is out of this world. I was in heaven.
I only make it there once a year or so, and only if I am on my way somewhere else since the five-hour drive negates the savings. However, when I do get to go, woohoo! I spend all I can. And that is super easy in this place.
They do not have a website, but they do have a Facebook page; you can find it here.
Here are some pics from my latest haul. Enjoy.
