Hi, I’m Kate. I love to create art using tiny shiny beads. I also talk non-stop about beads and bead mosaics to anyone who will listen. Hence why I have started this blog as I need more people to listen to me talk! I also like to share. I like to show pieces as they are in development and discuss how they are being made and what they mean to me.
