My interest in beads

Hi to all the bead enthusiast. I am new to the group and would like to share my life with beads with you.I started beading in 1998, on a trip to Las Vegas and when I look back its hard to believe that I traveled from South Africa to get hooked on beads in Las Vegas. Always crafty and arty I tried my hand at whatever craft and called myself a professional craft student as I went to every craft class available. When I started bead weaving I finally found my niche and still cannot get enough. …See More

We are so glad you have joined the Beaders Showcase. Take a look around the site and you will find several areas of interest. Members here are always interested in pictures of your work. If you don't know how to photograph your jewelry, you will find conversations in the forum (Discussions) on how do set up an inexpensive photo studio.

There's also different groups that you can join to help you with what ever you are currently interested in. For instance, if you're currently interested in bead embroidery, there is a group for that. If you have a specific question on how to do something in bead embroidery, feel free to start a thread in discussions.

If you're interested in learning how to do something new, let's say the Cellini spiral, check out videos because there may be one there to help you learn how to do that. I know for sure there's one on the Cellini spiral because it was the first video uploaded and it's mine.

If you find someone whose work you really like, be bold and ask them to accept you as a friend. I will be sending you an invitation as Gail Devoid to become my friend and you can check that out. Generally, you will find that beaders are a very friendly group.

There's also blog posts here. These are searchable. If you search for Gail Devoid, Mona Hair's entries for the show we co-hosted will show. If you are interested in bead embroidery and search on that term, any blog entry that mentions this will display.

Have fun!

Gail Devoid
