About Me

Welcome to The Bead Den Blog. This site started as a place to show my out-of-province family the progress I had or had not been making with my new found hobby. BEADS! It’s just a hobby. I don’t sell my jewelry.

I do have a how to page but that will be under construction for a bit. Changes are coming to this site once again. That is the only thing you can be sure of here. Because I’m not one for keeping things the same for long. I change my mind about things all the time. I’ll fill you in a little later.

Sorry for any confusion that may occur over the next few weeks. Now you’re part of my world LOL

Once again, to any beaders, if you have any questions or want instructions, just drop a comment. If I can help in anyway, I will. I love looking stuff up.

    Hi with malice. Thanks for popping by
    Your name makes me think of one of the books on my shelf, “Spite, Malice and Revenge.” :) I’ll have to drop by your site.

    Hi, i love beading, tend towards more ethnic stuff. big problem i have is mounting tumbled stones onto a necklace, so i’m just superglueing them onto a little beadfinding silver thingy and then use wire to attach to the necklace, it looks horrific, but what other options are there?

  4. thebeadden Says:

    Hi amandzing. Thanks for stopping by. Give me a few days and I’ll leave you some links to various options you can use to use to mount your stones.
    I stopped by your site and read some of your poems. I got caught up in them and now it’s 10 o’clock! They are very good.

    amandzing here are the links to a few ideas you can work with. Good Luck. I don’t know if this is what you had in mind. If not just let me know.

    caged spiral

    box cage

    and if you feel really adventurous

    Good Luck!

    I forgot to ask. I just assumed the gemstones aren’t drilled. Are they?

  8. amandzing Says:

    those are great, i think i like the spiral the most. perhaps i should take a photo and send it to you, so you can get an idea of what it is i’m doing, the idea is mainly for the tumbled, undrilled, stone to rest against the skin in order to get the best out of the various properties of the various stones i use. but the spiral looks the easist of them all.

    he-he ironic how blog “intentions” turn into blog “actions”!

    I had a whole “intent” for mine to get me away from the “actions” I was doing before and well am doing again ;)

    then again, just getting the “voices” out of my head, is better than them rattling around on their own alone :)
