A few years ago, I wrote a post for Art Bead Scene about the things I was thankful for about my craft. This thanksgiving weekend, I wanted to reflect back upon that post. My beading has taken on a different form lately since I have been running a weekend booth at an artist market every week, so I am thankful for different things now, namely the opportunity to help others be creative with my crafty knowledge and encouragement. You can find my original thankful post in the archives here!
And now for the latest news from our beady friends:
If you have “glitter” experience, Lisa and her
readers are looking for guidance when it comes to using glitter in
jewelry projects.
Combine those jewelry techniques – this time with wire and fused glass.
Gaea’s ceramics pair up with Vintaj Brass to create some gorgeous Victorian Christmas jewelry inspiration!
Beautiful toggle clasps are meant to be seen, not hidden away!
This week Carmi shares some useful information about resin and cold temperatures.
Snap Out of it, Jean! There’s beading to be done!
