So I wanted to make a necklace...

I need a wrangler.  I am awful when it comes to keeping myself on task when I have a table full of beads.

I needed to re-stock my finished jewelry at work so first I made some beads.

Now my favorite part I went to the local bead store and sought out some Czech glass beads to go with my beads. I wanted to add some color and pop. Then I got out my own stash and found some more beads!  

 Then I got out everything...and of course got distracted with another idea. Too many things to choose from. So first I made this.

Which of course looks nothing like the original plan but I was super happy with it. 
Finally I did a simple necklace in the end.

I am hoping that I am not the only one who jumps around. Sometimes I have a plan and execute it accordingly. But many times I am winging it. 
How about you? Do you plan it all out. Sketch and then string it. 
I have been known to string something up and take the whole thing apart only to start over. 
I would love to hear how you create.
Off to teach in Madison WI. this weekend so next week I hope to have pictures of the class.
