December 2009 Greetings all! Like most of you, I'm busy getting ready for the holidays. I love this time of year, but I think I really like the week between Christmas and New Years the best. All of the hustle and bustle are done, my website sales are slow and I get to relax. I reflect on the previous year and plan for the next. It's a nice calm period for me and I look forward to it. My holiday will be blessed this year as my whole family is getting together. I hope yours will also find you happy, healthy and surrounded by peace and love. And now onto this month's columns Beading Tip Christmas earrings Marketing Tip The 3nd in a series on on-line social media, this article focuses on twitter. Featured Bead Artist This month we are featuring an Australian artist, Maxine Chivers. Maxine wanted to be a cartoonist when she was young and it shows in her beads. They're a lot of fun. Please note that The Beading Times does not in any way participate in the sale of these hand crafted dazzlers and bears no responsibility for any transactions you may initiate. Beading Culture December's birthstone, the shades of blue Beading Project Christmas earrings Design Corner Cube beads. When dreaming about this website, I pictured a place for beading enthusiasts to gather, to participate and to share their knowledge. I hope you all take part in shaping this magazine – I want it to truly be a group effort. Your input is welcome here. I’d love to have you nominate a bead maker or submit tips or projects (don’t worry about your writing skills - my staff stands ready to transform your basic instructions into publishable text.). Beyond your participation in the regularly scheduled monthly features, I’d like to see you guide the shape of things to come. What would you like to see? Want to edit a column, write a story or post a question for the staff? This is your place to shine or to bask in the glow. Everyone here at The Beading Times is anxious to create a homey place for you – just let us know what it takes by emailing me. Wishing you happy Beading Times, Sandy Sandra J.
