I re-wrote the entire site from the ground-up, and it includes tons of new features. To start, all of the beaded bead patterns/tutorials previously available through my Artfire or Etsy shops are now available through my website to download immediately after payment; no more waiting for the pattern to be e-mailed to you! In addition to rewritten versions of the first six patterns I ever wrote, my website also contains my newest pattern, the Crystal Helix beaded bead:
For beginning students, or if you've never woven a beaded bead before, I figure that the best place to start is with a basic cube. With this in mind, I wrote a free pattern for a cube beaded bead in several different color combinations. It reminds me of candy, so I've named it the Candy Cube beaded bead:
Kits are now also available for several of my patterns. Here's one of the color schemes available for the Teardrop Bubbles kit:I'll be talking more about the new features of my website over the next couple of days. In the meantime, to celebrate I'm offering a special discount valid only at my website: from now through Monday, January 23, enter the coupon code 20off at checkout to receive 20% off your entire order!
And don't forget, Bead & Button Show Registration opens at noon CST today! I've heard that some classes sell out within minutes, so don't delay!
Congratulation on redoing the website. That's a big deal! I love the new crystal helix design.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gwen! It took a whole lot of time since I did all of the coding myself, but I learned a lot about web design in the process. The Crystal Helix bead is really fun; it works up quickly in at least two sizes, and it can twist either to the right or the left.
