Beads, Baubles and Jewels; Plus Katie Hacker

While I have not completed very many projects lately in the world of beading, I have been doing some research. I found that one of my favorite ladies from the show Beads, Baubles and Jewels has her own blog, plus a new book out on beading. Her name is Katie Hacker, and she's awesome! Her blog is located at www.katiehacker.blogspot.com or www.katiehacker.com.
There are also episode clips from the show available at www.beadalon.com, which is TOTALLY awesome, too. Everyone needs to go and check this out. I own several of her books, too. I find that she's easy to understand and very easy to follow along with. Sometimes, the books that I buy are just not very helpful, but she keeps her stuff simple. And of course, her designs are great too!
I have shared all of her information with the gals in my beading society, too. If you haven't check out her sites, please do so. And if you are from the Chicago area and want to be a part of our little society, please come to visit us! Just click on the link at the bottom of my page or go to Yahoo! Groups and search for Northwest Suburban Bead in IL.

Beading Happy! Well trying to at least!
