Beadwork

While in high school, I taught myself Native American style beading by reading books from the library. I still enjoy it and return to it often as something to do while I'm sitting in front of the TV. I make what inspires me. That results in a wide range of styles and objects. I'm not taking commissions, due to my schedule being already fully booked and a desire to finish what I've already started. If you have questions about anything for sale, feel free to ask. I can provide more information and/or photos.
