Spring has sprung and if this seasonal reawakening isn’t enough to get your creative
Handcrafted
juices flowing, I think we can help. Several projects in this issue of Bead&Button put

time than you
’d guess!
(p. 38), Julie Moore Tanksley and Stephanie Goff’s floral bracelets (p. 42 and 62,
respectively), Sveltana Chernitsky’s “Seed of life earrings” (p. 48), and Fatima MensenPotter’s really fun beaded bead (p. 59), which we’ve noted — in the right colors —
could be mistaken for a sparkly but diminutive Easter egg. And we have lots more
in store for you as well, including a new column on gemstone beads, a quiz to help
you pinpoint your jewelry style, several additional projects, and more!
As always, I hope you’ll play along with our Find the Bead Strand challenge. Email
me by May 9 with the page the strand is on (put “Find the bead strand” in the subject
line). We’ll pick a winner the following week. Congratulations to Denise Johnson of
Burbank, California, who won our December issue contest!
