BeadFX - a Canadian bead store - staffed with crazy bead ladies. We post beady tips, video clips, stories, notices about classes and sales, and sometimes totally irrelevant stuff that we think is interesting and you might too!

Look out, Bead and Button, here I come!
Now that the renovations on our newly expanded store are almost complete, I'm off for a little R&R at the B&B. My idea of a relaxing time is to spend the day playing with teeny-tiny seed beads, so I'm taking some classes at the Bead & Button show before the market opens.
First one will be on 3-D shapes with peyote with Diane Fitzgerald, based on her book Shaped Beadwork:
The second one will be a loomwork course, and finally I'm hoping to take a course on doing Pave type jewelry using Crystallized Swarovski chatons and a new resin material.
After that, the Market begins and I'll be checking out what's new and hot in the bead business. Because Bead & Button is the largest show of it's type in North America, a lot of the big manufacturers will be there as well, showing off their newest stuff.
Oh, almost forgot. If you are going to be at Bead & Button, the folks at John Bead have asked me to tell you that they will be hosting a "Canadians and friends" reception at the Hilton Hotel after the show floor closes on Saturday night. You can find out more by visiting their booths (935/937).
