About Me

Bits of Glass: I have always loved beaded jewelry, especially peyote stitched bracelet. I love beaded jewelry that looks like art. I was laid off from a stressful job in the mortgage industry in April of 2011 and found myself bored to tears. One afternoon I wandered over to Lady Bead & Rook in Wilton NH, bought myself a book on beading, all kinds of beads & I was hooked! I've found a new job & I now find that beading at night after work is a great way to wind down. I'm married to a wonderful, understanding man & have 2 beautiful daughters.
