As a beader, I have always wanted to be able to go into a store and get just what I need, whether it was one gemstone or 3 grams of seed beads.  When the last, local shop closed, I made the decision to give a store a go, and here we are!

I started my obsession by making a necklace for a dear friend and I was hooked.  Who wouldn't be?  Pretty beads and the ability to be creative?  I'm in!  Six months later I was selling at shows because I had made so many things.  It only escalated from there.

​

Reading books and watching videos got me going and the local bead store helped me along as well as going to classes offered at bead shows.  I found that everything was interesting and fun and I had to learn it!  Soooo... many years later, I have done just about everything in the hobby jewelry making genre.  I was also a big fan of spreading the knowledge, so I began teaching and love to help people learn a new skill.

​

So, here I am today, 5 years later and still sharing all my stash of beads and tools for everyone to peruse and I enjoy sharing my vast knowledge of bead, jewelry & tools as well.

​

Thank you to all my loyal customers for making this dream a reality
