They were purchased in Chinatown in Los Angeles in 2002, while we were in California for a big extended family reunion. It was awesome... I had no idea I had so many shaggy-haired guitar-picking Uncles. Singing ones, too. Anyway. I love Chinatown(s). The first one I went to was in 1983 in San Francisco, it fascinated me more than any other aspect of the trip. I was only 13 or so, maybe that's why I couldn't be extracted from the shops filled with big paper lanterns hanging overhead in every bright color, incense burning in dainty brass trinkets, and real live dead fish hanging in the open windows. All in one shop. I fellin love with All Things Chinatown on that trip.So upon returning to California in 2002, and finding out that LA had it's own Chinatown too, I made a beeline for it, and that's where I found the hanging bead curtain in this video. I kept it with me all through the years, and now it still serves a purpose, the individual strands of beads have been cut off one by one, and used to tie up and secure the various plants and vines and growing things on my deck. I now live in Florida, but I have a little bit of Chinatown with me here...Here's more Christian videos like this, here.
