Canadian blog authoress and jewelry designer-- Pearl, from The Beading Gem's Journal has been kind enough to highlight me as a featured designer and allow me to guest author a post on her site.
I first met Pearl on a jewelry making forum that we both frequent, and I was drawn to her because of her willingness to help others. She runs a design-your-own-jewelry service, where she is always looking for new ideas tips to help beginners that attend her workshops and beading parties around Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. In her journal, not only does she share tips for budding beaders and seasoned designers alike, but she also shares her knowledge of gemstone lore and history. One of my favorite articles that she has posted was about the history behind Marie Antoinette's Pearls. I'm not a history buff, but I love the way Pearl highlights the stories behind the jewels and makes learning fun and even interesting.
The Beading Gem's Journal is definitely one of my favorite blogs that I visit daily. I am truly honored to be featured and was taken completely by surprise to be asked to guest author! ^_^ Make sure to bookmark or subscribe to her blog, you never know what great ideas she'll bring your way!
