So, it's been a while! What has everyone been up to? I've been experimenting with seed beads. It's amazing what you can come up with if you use different sized beads than the one recommended in the design you're working with. One way to keep the design ideas coming is to subscribe to a beading magazine. Popular bead magazines include Beadstyle, Beadwork and Bead and Button. These are actually top of the line mags. When working with a bead pattern, I encourage you to experiment and add your own touch. Go crazy with it! Use the colors you love and the beads that attract you. What you come up with will be unique and a source of pride.

Take a sneak peak at my new site, [Removed]. It's still a work in progress but you can find some useful information there. Visit often to learn things like what tools you will need when making jewelry, how to bead crochet, how to make resin jewelry, how to make polymer clay jewelry how to do bead weaving stitches like even count peyote and right angle weave, and much more. I moved some of the information from this blog there and expanded it. So, it's [Removed]. See you there!
