July 2009 Greetings all! Every year my two beading partners ( Jean and Kathy) and I do our first outdoor jewelry show over the 4th of July weekend. It's at an outdoor festival and we take turns wandering around watching the various shows, listening to the music and eating. We always have a good time and are usually able to gauge how our year will go from this sale. Wish us luck! Next month's design corner will showcase beaded watches. If you'd like to see one of your designs featured on this site, email me a picture at sandy@beadingtimes.com . All designs will be juried and space is limited. But if your picture is selected, you will get your name and website link published with the picture. In return for your exposure, The Beading Times reserves the right to reprint all published pictures in another medium. And now onto this month's columns Beading Tip Jewelry show risers Marketing Tip Determining if a show is worthwhile Featured Bead Artist This month’s featured artist,Leah Deeb lives in the USA. Her beads remind me of ancient pots and vessels and they are typically rimmed with silver. Definitely worth seeing. 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 July's birthstone, ruby Beading Project Carol made a superhuman effort this month and made a pair of earrings with only one hand. She recently broke her left wrist but didn't want to disappoint you. Design Corner Beaded jewelry made with coin shaped 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.
