Inexpensive beads are a must when you're on a budget.Jeanniehttp://www.jkdjewelry.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-42252662633425307552010-04-13T18:54:33.569-04:002010-04-13T18:54:33.569-04:00I do agree being a bead snob leads to missing some...I do agree being a bead snob leads to missing some great possibilities!!!

I love to use art...I am definitely not a bead snob. I love to use artisan beads and the highest quality gems that I can afford, but I have no qualms about mixing in the less expensive ones. I think it is all about how you put it together. You can make expensive beads look cheap if you don't use them right, and alternately you can make inexpensive or even free components (like my favorite found objects) look really high end. It is all in how you treat the materials. Great find! Enjoy the day, Lisa! Erin<br />P.S. I am going over right now to see if I can win a copy of your book!TesoriTrovatihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12771359288546654791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-12079736829833946372010-04-13T08:41:29.575-04:002010-04-13T08:41:29.575-04:00You never know where you are going to find a littl...You never know where you are going to find a little extra special surprise. Right? They are really cute. My first venture into beading involved me drooling over the wall of beads at a Joann's. I wanted it all, yet had no specific idea of what I was making. I just wanted to start.<br /><br />I picked up your book through Amazon and I can tell anybody reading this... if you haven't read it yet, click immediately over to Heather's blog at Azure Island Designs to put your name in the hat for the give away. I guarantee you'll find inspiration in Lisa's book. I know I did! <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your talent Lisa! You're a doll! :o)<br /><br />Have a terrific day!Dawn Doucettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08249588677366444337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8934854770180589403.post-80997362349566679872010-04-12T23:12:42.738-04:002010-04-12T23:12:42.738-04:00Finances dictate not being a bead snob.

Anyway the cheap and cheerful ones always make good fillers I find and a bit of imagination (which you have in spades)can make them into something stunning.Daviniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00816205028289012921noreply@blogger.com
