Social Media

One of my beading inspirations and role models is Lauren Harpster, a French Beaded Flower artist, designer, and author. She is the owner of Bead and Blossom Studio and one of the administrators of a Facebook group where I learned the art of French Beaded Flowers. She is an excellent teacher and creates such beautiful pieces. Here are some of her social media links.

Here is a video from her YouTube Channel that features one of my pieces, made during one of her online classes.

Another crafting role model is my friend, Hannah, who created her own business doing what she loves. Here is her TikTok and Instagram if you'd like to watch her create some amazing pieces.
