Raised Texture Beading
I think it’s safe to say, that in these new and tender times we have found ourselves in with the COVID-19 pandemic, all of us have been affected by this virus in a variety of ways. Some of these affects have touched all our lives, bringing a sense of community, empathy and understanding amongst all of us here in the USA. Other affects have been unique to each of us. While we are all in this together, some of our friends, family, neighbors and fellow human beings have had to deal with situations far beyond what anyone should ever have to endure. There are people living without basic necessities. The GofundMe link is on Bead Feed page and you can donate to our cause "Feeding America"
I wanted to combine my passion and my purpose, so I decided I would donate one of my new beaded collars that I created for the Fire Mountain Gems and Beads online videos which are coming May 13th - July 1st.
This beaded collar will be raffled off to those who donate at least $10 to the GoFundMe. After bringing up my intentions to some of my friends and fellow bead artists, I was overwhelmed by the incredible amount of offers to join my cause. So in addition to my beaded collar, every time you donate at least $10, you will be entered into each drawing, which is already over 20 pieces of original beadwork by various artists.
Thank you for helping me to feed our country in this time of need! Good luck!

My purpose and journey
is to
INSPIRE you!
I was the little girl
that colored outside the lines and have continued it
through my adult years. Allow me the pleasure to
show you how easy and freeing it is.
“Raised
Texture Beading” style is free-form (no patterns to
follow), allowing you let the beads speak to you through color,
texture and placement. I use a
variation of stitches to create movement and texture
throughout your beadwork allowing your work to come
alive! These workshops will
change the way you look, see and create with beads….
