As the Bead Turns - September 16th

Bringing you all the dirt and drama from the beading blog world.

This week, Katie shares tips on writing a newsletter to promote your business.

Tammy touts the treasures you can gather from other beaders when you join a bead society.

Cyndi shows you how to cinch a stone, simply and beautifully.

There is a new clip of Handmade Nation to be seen! Look for a snippet of an interview with Naughty Secretary Club’s Jennifer Perkins at the Renegade Craft Fair Brooklyn about the art of Revamped Vintage Jewelry plus glass bead making and more.

In a discussion of why we should plan out our designs, Jean shows a pretty fall bracelet set with a cool clasp and some findings which suit the beads perfectly!

Clay play anyone? Margot shows some recent experiments in polymer clay and talks about her creative process. After you check out the beginning stages, see the resulting finished necklace at http://margotpotter.blogspot.com/2007/09/pirate-king-necklace-and-repost.html.

Worlds and beads are colliding at the Art Bead Scene! This post is just a friendly reminder that the month and your chance to win free beads from Joan Miller and Humblebeads are almost up!
