Let me introduce you to a beading blog. Being an avid beader I have visited a lot of bead sites and ordered from many. I would like to share some of my experiences with techniques, successes and failures, ie. 'bad idea disguised as a good idea', in the pursuit of creating beauty with beads.
I've dealt with many vendors of beading supplies and read many a publication on the subject; seen the good the bad and the ugly, and boy, is there some ugly stuff out there. I hope you will join me in this journey and share some of your triumphs and tragedies in the bead world.

Baby, it's cold outside.
About Me
- Beadbag Lady
- I'm one of those 'baby boomers' looking towards retirement. I've purchased my retirement home, a 1977 36.5' Pearson sailboat. She's sitting happily in a berth at a marina near where I live. She's beautiful but needing a bit of refitting. I began beading as a way to make extra money for her upgrades. Beading has been a hobby for some time and is now earning me a bit of income. Because it is pretty portable and doesn't take up a lot of space, I expect to keep at it during my retirement travels. I've settled on a theme that is sea related and nautical in nature, using pearls, shells and designs with the sea in mind. I'd like to supplement my cruising kitty doing something I love while I travel.
