Soft Flex Class in Tucson on May 19!


In preparation for teaching my very first class at the BeadandButton Show in Milwaukee, I am going to teach my class early in Tucson on May 19th at Design and Adorn. This class is going to be very educational. I plan to cover all things Soft Flex and students will make the design shown above in their favorite color combination. The class fee is only $30, but all items for the project must be purchased separately from Design and Adorn. I am so excited!

Beading Book Combo


During the month of March only, Soft Flex is offering an awesome book deal. You can get both of the lovely books shown above (one of them co-authored by me) for only $29.95!


Show Your Colors is a new book by Soft Flex employees Jamie Hogsett and Sara Oehler. Show Your Colors explores beading designs infused with color. The book features 30 projects that use color throughout the jewelry creation, from the gemstones and beads to the beading wire itself. The designs are beginner friendly and unique enough that even the more seasoned beaders will enjoy creating them. Show Your Colors is the perfect accompaniment to our ten foot color spools as nearly every design in the book can be completed with a single spool. Think in color. Design in color. Show Your Colors!

Jewelry for the New Romantic will guide you through creating ten beautiful jewelry sets; each containing a necklace, bracelet, and earrings. The book is filled with easy to follow instructions and clear illustrations. Learn how to create designs that incorporate color and edgy style along with traditional beading techniques. Most of the designs in this book were created with Soft Flex Wire. Don't forget to buy what you need before embarking on your creative journey.

First of several Book Signing Events


On Saturday, I had my first of several Book Signing Events. It was really, really fun. Not only did I enjoy talking about the book that Jamie Hogsett and I wrote together - Show Your Colors, but also I enjoyed teaching a free make-it-take-it using Soft Flex Beading Wire. Teaching is easily a favorite part of my job. And frankly, it felt good just to be in a bead store surrounded by people who share my same hobby. It was a really fun experience. I look forward to all of my upcoming events.

Show Your Colors in Tucson


Jamie and I enjoyed showing off our new book in Tucson, AZ. It as fun to watch people flip through it and get excited and inspired to use colored beading wire in a new and unusual way. The book includes information on everything you'd ever need or want to know about beading wire as well as techniques such as crimping the wire into shapes and knitting with beading wire on a knitting spool.
