If you haven't flipped through the February issue of Bead&Button , you're missing out on a new column we've added to our Bead Soup section: "B&B's Handy Dandy Guide To...," an area devoted to bringing order to the often chaotic world of beads. February's topic is seed bead shapes, a subject that...

Thanks for your reply. I'm sorry I didn't realize you had posted your advice until just now. I am imagining what you are saying and I think that would work--for a couple of reasons--that would leave out the crystal and loop which would be a major change, and the direct seed bead and jumpring...

Starting with our August 2011 issue , we've been giving seed bead colors for the projects we publish. To do this, we take the manufacturer, color number, and color name straight off each tube of beads -- assuming that tiny tube is so thoroughly labeled! Many times the tube only bears a fragment of...

I really believe sharing is a key factor for spreading a message and I am sure everybody involved in the ecofriendly bead movement will be benefited, starting from our mother earth, the rain forest, collectors of the nuts, farmers, traders and beaders. Little actions make huge improvements

Thank you all for the welcome! I had read good things about them as well which is why I tried them...and why I have been so disappointed with the lack of communication about my order. Luckily it was a small order (under $20) and I am sure that Paypal will handle it for me now that it has gone this far...

Hi! I thought I'd show this one here too, because I am proud of it. :-)

Let’s jump right in to my latest blog. I’m a little behind on blogging, but not without a good excuse. Lately, I’ve become even more involved with the Loose Bead Society (LBS) in Milwaukee, Wis., and was on a committee to coordinate a bead show and sale. The sale is four days long and a lot of details...

Today, the bead du jour is bowtie beads. Farfalle, bowtie —
whatever you want to call it — this shape of bead should be added
to your bead menu. Last week, while in the garment district in Manhattan, I
wandered into one of my favorite bead stores: York Beads. As you know, I am a

Secrets of Highly Creative Beaders Lately, I have found myself in a very peculiar state of mind. My last blog was right before the Bead&Button Show, when my little beady motor was revving up for the glorious revelry that is the quintessential heart of the show. I spent the week going to classes and...

Excitement is in the air, not to mention pollen (sniffle,
sneeze). The Bead&Button Show is almost here and I am sooooo looking
forward to seeing old friends and new beads. I’ll probably make some new
friends because I’m taking two classes this year. Taking a class at the Bead&Button Show is great...

It’s been a social whirlwind for me during the last two weeks. On Monday, I spent the evening with members of the Loose Bead Society. On Wednesday, the Rings & Things Bead Tour Truck show was in town and the beads that Kim and the crew brought to Milwaukee were stellar. Oh, and I received the latest...
