Happy New Year Humblebeads Fans!

 

I hope you had a great holiday and want to wish you the best and brightest for 2011.  I'm back from my wonderful trip in Michigan where I enjoyed snowy days, time with my family and a much needed break.  My shops are once again open and I'm looking forward to sending beads your way!

Right now you can see my Illuminated Manuscript in a beautiful design by Erin Prais-Hintz in the winter issue of Stringing Magazine.

 

I had stopped making these beads, but due to such a popular demand they are now back and listed on my website.

Bead Bundles

 

I'm starting the year off by offering collections of beads.  These are awesome sets of spring inspired designs with some of my most popular and new beads.
