I have always loved jewelry and crafts in general. I have been designing jewelry for a number of years now but am still learning lots. Needless to say, I have become a beadaholic and more recently, a blogging addict.

I am a jewelry artist and enthuasist. I also love to teach and spread my bead addiction. I teach at workshops and beading parties. I am also the author of a different kind of jewelry blog - informative and inspirational commentaries on beads, jewelry making and the people who make and wear them, both past and present.

Chain maille, beadweaving, bead stringing and wire work are my favourites. My emphasis is always on one of a kind designs.

I read a lot. My favourite subjects include history and science which is reflected in my jewelry blog

Okay Lis! I'll bear that in mind. I have contributed a post on pearls in China recently. And no doubt will have more in the future.

Hi Pearl


How are you. I hope all is well with you and yours.
I just thought I let you know, in case you haven't seen, that we are having a Wire Wrap Swap over at Wire Wrappers Anonymous. It is going to be so much fun and I thought you might like to join in. The deadline to sign up for it is this Friday the 13th (yeiks) and then you have about 6 weeks to finish your project. So that gives everyone plenty of time. So head on over there and check it out if you like. It would be so nice to have you join in  

Hugs
Janine

Thanks, Nancy for your lovely comment on my work.  Glad to know you are from my neck of the woods!  We were up in Gros Morne National Park last summer. Just beautiful!
