Our LEARN TO BEAD
program is:
- Focused on teaching Skills
- Developmentally-based, where you learn skills in an orderly way, so you understand how skills build upon each other and are interrelated
- Easy to follow

Each class is divided into 4-8 lessons. Each lesson only costs $1.99. You download and play each lesson. You may make up to three copies for personal use. In addition, you may purchase written instructions, as well as kits of supplies and recommended books.

You can pick all the lessons associated with a particular class, or, if you need a refresher on any one technique, you might only want to pick 1 or 2 of the lessons, rather than purchase the whole class.

BEAD STRINGING

About Bead Stringing
There is an art and skill to stringing beads on cord. First, of course, is the selection of beads for a design, and the selection of the appropriate stringing material. Then is the selection of a clasp or closure, appropriate to the design and use of the piece. This continues with choosing the strategy for stringing beads with either thread, cable-wire, hybrid cable-thread, or cord, including choices about knotting, braiding, crimping, using multiple strands and a single tie-off, multiple strands with multiple tie-offs.
