About 16 years ago, I bought a package of beads to sew onto a top to give it some shine. Nobody warned me that beads are addictive. BAD BAD BEADS!!! You can't have enough of them! Since that time, I have been making jewelry. I took some soldering classes and tried some wire wrapping, but I always seem to go back to beadweaving.

I belong to the ETSY Beadweavers street team. In the time that I have been a member of that team, I have grown as a designer because of the inspiration and positive reinforcement provided there by my teammates, a group of truly talented artisans. Go to ETSY and search on EBW team. You will be truly amazed by the creations you will find there.

My first attempt at a bead embroidered necklace

I have been blown away by the bead embroidered creations I have seen, so I have planned a bead embroidered design of my own.   

Wish me luck.  Check back to see my progress.
