Beading Table


Hey there! I wanted to show you guys my beading table because I know some of you may be looking for one. From the picture you can see my current project on the table which is another vintage button necklace. I am working on the spiral chain at this point. I purchased the beading table on Ebay.com. The height is adjustable and the table angle is adjustable too. You can move it right up to where you are sitting. It is a great beading table. It is called a "Herman Miller Scooter" table. You can find it for a variety of prices on Ebay.com. If you keep checking, you can usually get one for an affordable price.

I wanted to post some bead embroidery tutorials and resources to get you
started with bead embroidery. Here are two books that I own that are
both inspiring and helpful.



Bead Embroidery, The Complete Guide by Jane Davis
Beaded Embellishment by Amy C. Clarke and Robin Atkins

A great online bead embroidery tutorial is avaliable too. It is Adventures in Bead Embroidery by The Lone Beader.

Bead Embroidery Necklace - Mother's Day Gift


Go ahead, call me the "lazy blogger" because I haven't posted in a while. I just wanted to show you guys the finished piece from my earlier posts. This was for my mother for mother's day this year.

I have many projects in the works... at least three. I need more beads to finish them.

... and you will certainly see more bead embroidery from me to come.
