I wanted to introduce everyone to another blog that is showcasing Latvian beadweavers. It is very inspiring to read their stories and see their beadwork.
Go to http://binkaminka.blogspot.com or click here and enjoy!
Isn't it wonderful that we have such a connection with people from all over the world through beads? I am so thankful for the skills my mother and grandmother taught me (sewing and crochet). I'm so thankful to be able to use my hands and eyes for the detailed work when weaving those tiny rocailles together in the hopes it will result in something beautiful.
And I'm so thankful for beaders around the world who share the same passion and feel the same therapeutic results. It's so inspiring.
I am answering about Bead Creator Pro - I only have it because they gave it away free - it is kind of hard to learn and use. I also have this one http://www.beadtool.net/ Bead tool - you can try it out for free to see if you like it and see how it works - I think I like this one a bit better. I only have the tryout version but I like it.
