Welcome to Beadjewelry.net!

I’ve been writing about jewelry and jewelry making since the early 00s, when I first became the Fashion Jewelry editor, and later the Jewelry Making editor, at BellaOnline.com. My own jewelry and crafting pursuits are pretty varied, ranging from bead weaving to metal fabrication to beaded macramé. I've demonstrated several of my projects on the DIY Channel's show Jewelry Making, and other of my designs appear in various jewelry-making project books. Most recently, I've had the honor of writing four books in the Teach Yourself Visually series for Wiley Publishing. You can learn more about them by checking out their pages on Amazon.com:

Teach Yourself Visually: Beadwork (August 2009 release)

My next book, The Complete Idiot's Guide to Selling Your Crafts is in progress and scheduled for release in 2010.
