My first beading memory. Lets see. It must have been about 10 years ago (boy has it been that long ago). I would sit in front of my computer, surfing the web mindlessly puttong things on Ebay (not jewelry). Next to me on my adjoining craft table were some seed beads ( I have always bought beads and broken jewelry, not really knowing that I was becoming addicted). I can't sleep much late at night. My mind is always busy. (I do my best creative work when the rest of the world is sleeping.) So I thought I would try to use some of these seed beads and make my daughter a little something. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. I used some thread, really had a hard time putting ends on it. When you don't know what you are doing it can get a little frustrating, but perserverance prevailed. It was simple yet "A handmade gift for my daughter". This was truely the begining of the end, for now I am obsessed. I bead constantly. I do the outdoor markets (with good results, sometimes great!) I do craft shows, bazaars, I even opened a bead and boutique for a while. I have some of my stuff on Etzy. I am always looking for a way to sell it. Glad that I found BeadHuddle. Getting in on the bottom floor is exciting. Glad to be here.
