Note from Viki Lareau,

 

"Absolutely the most rewarding part of membership will be this community!  There is so much joy in being a part of this group of talented & creative souls who just love to make jewelry! It does not matter the skill level, length of time you have been making jewelry, how much you spend or don't spend on materials; it does not matter if you create simple elegant pieces, or eclectic works of jewelry art, whether if you sell your work or not, or even like to wear jewelry or not - this is a community who loves to share techniques, ideas, and even materials with each other - knowing that next time they forgot crimp tubes for class, someone will be there to offer theirs. 

 

As Mark & I create this new home for those who want to make jewelry, either for the first time, or for long time jewelry makers who want to discover something new - I am overwhelmed with gratitude for this opportunity. The support & passion of our Bead Factory community made this happen. We'll strive everyday to make this a home for you to feel as appreciated and as special as you are to us, and to this community you have created."

 

Thank you!!!
