At top left is a bead embroidered and fringed pectoral created by the very talented Heidi Kummli. We’re very excited to be able to offer her new book for sale–she’s one of several published authors at Bead Lounge.
Here’s a look at a frothy confection in pink beads and copper, created a link at a time by Laura Humenik.
She also did the beadstringing on this lovely necklace that features a polymer clay central pendant made by polymer clay artist Janis Holler.
Janis and Laura also instruct at Bead Lounge, offering classes in polymer clay and wire sculptural necklaces. Many of the talented artisans who offer their work through the gallery at Bead Lounge also give classes for those who wish to learn how it is done!
Jan Bonestroo creates fabulous copper clips and jewelry components, as well as finished jewelry for sale through our gallery.
