BeadingInspirations's Profile

Bio

I've loved making crafts and selling at Craft/Art Fairs for over 25 years. I worked with Polymer Clay the past 15 years. After retiring and downsizing, I felt the need to change creative direction. I was inspired by BEADING! Sharing my new beading passion is rewarding and exciting to see others become creatively inspired with beads.

BEADING INSPIRATION:

My first beading experience was beadweaving snowflake ornaments, making bookmarks, and a jewelry set for each of my best friends. Beading became my new passion!

I was inspired to share this passion teaching bead classes through local Community Ed Departments and "DIY" Jewelry Parties. My friends have joined me in this passion and we get together monthly to "play with beads".

FUTURE INSPIRATIONS

My goal is to expand my beadweaving skills, learn Kumihimo Braiding and incorporate these techniques into my jewelry and other items. I'm inspired and challenged to take some of my non-jewelry Polymer Clay ideas and transform them with beads, such as garden plant stakes(butterflies,dragonflies and flowers).

I hope you enjoy my "Beading Inspirations" and check back often to see what has been added.
