✨ New video goes live tonight at 6pm CST! ✨

Tonight I’m sharing the Garnet Masque bracelet, created with Black Rutilated Quartz, ruby-toned Miyuki seed beads, and a dramatic rhinestone mask focal using December’s Beads of the Month Clubs. I'll also be unboxing all the Beads of the Month Clubs and Companion Packs I receive each month!

If you love elegant, slightly mysterious jewelry designs, this one’s for you. Watch now and let me know which detail is your favorite—and stay tuned, because a herringbone seed bead necklace is coming next!

✨ New Video Goes Live Today at 12 CST! | December’s Time Traveler Unboxing + Porcelain Hour Earrings ✨

The December Bargain Bead Box: Time Traveler might be one of the most unique kits of the year—there’s even a working pocketwatch inside!

I unboxed everything on camera and created a quick mixed-media earring design using the porcelain floral beads and Alashan agate.

Come join me and tell me what you think of this month’s collection!

Question: Should the matching necklace be mixed media… or all wire-working?

Hello everyone! I wanted to let you know that I’m still here—recently, I’ve been under the weather and even caught a stomach bug. Despite that, I was able to record a new video, which will be available on Saturday, so please stay tuned! If you’re in the northern Houston area this weekend, I’d love for you to stop by and say hello at The Woodlands Winter Makers Market. Details are provided below. Hope to see you there!

❄️ Today’s tutorial releases tonight at 6pm: the Beginner Friendly Cascading Winterflakes Earrings! ❄️

This project is quick, customizable, and perfect for winter gifts or holiday markets. I show you how to beadweave the mini snowflakes, create the cascading drops, and finish the earrings with your choice of enamel charm. If you want to bead along, I’ve also put together a small kit in my Etsy shop with everything included. Let me know which snowflake color you’d choose for your pair.

New tutorial is live today at noon. 

I’m showing how to brick stitch a honeycomb and a tiny beaded bee using the Delica Beads of the Month Club and layer them together for a dimensional earring design. If you enjoy Delica bead projects, brick stitch techniques, or detailed seed bead work, this one is a fun challenge. The downloadable pattern can be found in my Etsy shop; the link is in the video, and there is a 75 percent off code included.

If you want more tutorials like this, make sure you are subscribed so you don’t miss anything coming up. Next Tuesday's tutorial will be a RAW earring made with Czech fire-polished beads. Stay tuned!
