At Auntie’s Beads, we have recently started a new initiative called, “Become a Better Beader with Auntie’s Beads“. As beaders just like you, we want you to think of us first when you consider the best place to go for exclusive, new designs, beading tips and techniques and the best quality, most affordable beads and jewelry-making supplies.
To that end, we’ve begun a new series featuring our designers as well as owner, Susie Henderson, wherein we will be showcasing each respective designers’ most helpful ways to improve your beading skills. We’ll be using everything we’ve got at our disposal: beading tips from novice to advanced with both pictures and written instructions, free online videos featuring the most up-to-date techniques available and how-to’s like learning to use one design as inspiration to make something which is completely your own! With each new edition, we’ll even be referencing some of our favorite original projects from our enormous archive that may be helpful for learning and inspiration.
So join us at AuntiesBeads.com in the coming weeks as we explore along with you all the ways in which you can Become a Better Beader with Auntie’s Beads!
