About this blog
I love beading and searching for beautiful beads to create jewellery.
I’ve only just started – when I say ‘just’, it is really a year ago when my daughter and I wandered into The Beaderie in Cambridge. My daughter wanted a Beading birthday party. Sally who owns The Beaderie hosted the party for 6 girls and I was hooked. I’ve attended Sally’s classes and have now spent a small fortune on beads.
This blog is a record of the places to find beads and semi-precious stones and my foray into the world of beaded jewellery.
I’d like to hear from you if you have tips to share or recommendations, or would like to guest blog on your beading experience. Get in touch.
