I just tried a a dozen exposures on my iPhone. Trying to take a pic of my 14060m for the forum. Useless. I don't know how you guys get such good photos. I can't even get one in focus.

The bead and bracelet look is really growing on me - any good sites that I can take a look at?

Site of a friend of mine. If you use the code 'summertime', you'll get an additional 25% off.

A good friend gave me a couple, then I decided to make a bunch myself. That way, I got the exact stones/beads/stringing thread, leather and silverware I wanted (from various places around the globe), and I could get the size just right, with a little trial and error. It was a fun little project, too, and I got some major brownie points because I gave a stack to my wife and daughter as well!

That's a very good way to relax and make some fun stuff in your taste But it may be a little frustrating in the beginning.
