If you missed the feature, Betcey Ventrella’s Road to Beads: It Started with Brick Stitch!, download it here. Enjoy the story of one bead addict’s evolution from following the Grateful Dead to touring the country’s best bead shows with tons of seed beads.

Yes I did enjoy it as I met Betcey during BeadFest Santa Fe at the cash register while paying for those incredible beads.

Wow - do you know, this is the first time I saw this? I had no idea this was online somewhere. Heh. Guess I should post a link to it on my website! B

Oh this was great! I've met Betcey a few times, and I'm always impressed. She's a great gal, and a great businesswoman. I wish I'd thought of a 'crystal store' myself!! I love the pic of the delicas in kilo boxes. I want that wall in my house. The imagination runs wild. Even just scooping out beads, and dumping in new bags would be fun. Weighing out for people... It really takes the 'candy store' idea to new heights.

Beyond Beadery is a premier online bead shop, one I frequent often. The service is great, organized and the packaging vey secure. Betcey and here crew are completely dedicated to their passion. This was a great article.
