I've tried using wire and even made some nice things but at the moment I'm too busy learning all the possibilities with bead weaving. I'll continue to occasionally do some wire pieces but I always feel they aren't quite right somehow. I think it's a case of practice making perfect. I've tried to get my daughter to do some beading but I think she's too busy with college and being a moderator, or whatever they call it, of her online game and forum. Maybe when she becomes a fully fledged beauty therapist, yay for me - my own personal masseuse, she'll see the light.

Hi Liz & Welcome

We use to have some teens that would drop in every-so-often but I haven't seen them around of late. (Or at least the ones I knew were teens.)

This is a great place to learn all sorts of techniques. From the free patterns that are available and just from our members themselves.

Find a thread that interests you and join the conversation we love hearing from new voices.

see ya in the posts

Hi Liz, My name is Lyn. I'm from Queensland, Australia and I'm not even close to your age. I actually have a 19 year old daughter if that helps. I'm new here too but you've got a head start on me in experience. I've only been beading about a month, you'll probably teach me! Everyone here is very friendly and willing to answer questions, which is the best part.

Do you have a particular obsession other than beads themselves? I'm really enjoying learning bead weaving. You Tube helped me get started and now I've got a lot of websites that give free patterns so I can play. I'm slowly using up my junky beads so I get some goodies, but it is slow going.

Anyway Liz welcome to the forum and I hope you enjoy the journey with us.

Lyn
