Last weekend I had the pleasure of vending at
Berks Bead Bazaar in Reading, PA. This is a smaller show with a focus on art beads and high quality components and gemstones.
Here's my table (with Colin holding down the fort). I debuted lots of new designs at the show.
I was thrilled that I was in between
Staci Smith and
Jenny Davies-Reazor's tables. We're all friends so it made the weekend that much more fun! Shout-out to Staci's daughter, Julia. She had a little table to sell her beads at and we had lots of laughs together.
And here is some eye candy from the show...
Enameled beads by
Gardanne Glass Lampwork and gorgeous bead weaving by
Sleepless Beader/Leslie Rogalski.
Stunning ceramic beads by Tracey Donoughe.
Fun charms from
MyElements and delightful lampwork headpins by
Laura Drosner Schreiber.
Yummy lampwork hollows from
Louise Mehaffey.
Cabochons as far as the eye can see by
Greg Graupp.
Silks and lampwork focals by
McGinithen GlassWorks.
And this wasn't even everything! I was having so much fun I didn't take nearly as many photos as I should have. I highly recommend that if you are in the area next year, you come out and shop Berks! You'll have no problem finding special pieces to use in your jewelry!
Thanks to
Joan and
Louise for hosting this wonderful show!
Happy Beading!
