Bits by Barb, Sparks, NV
I have always been interested in color and light and the interplay between them. In the past I have tried my hand at painting, ceramics, sewing, and photography. In 2007 I began experimenting with creating beaded jewelry from all the colorful beads I was finding at bead stores, thrift store necklaces and from old jewelry I no longer wore. I found the process calming and ended up making so much jewelry I thought why not put my jewelry out there to see if others would buy it. Now a self-aknowledged bead store addcit, I've launched a business, starting at small craft fairs and also selling to friends and through word-of mouth.
