I have been on this forum for about a year, and I am slowly getting to know the people on it.
But.....I would love to know a bit more context about who is who on this forum.
Like what your favourite beads type of beads are, where you are from, if you are selling beads or just collecting, etc. It seems like a lot of you know each other, and it can get a bit confusing sometimes for (semi-) newbies like me. So I'll start: My name is Floor (yes, it actually is a name....), and I live in the Netherlands. I have been making jewelry for about 8 years, and did some courses in goldsmithing as well. I started gathering more and more new beads, and then I decided I should start selling as well. People can subscibe to my beads, and they get a monthly package with beads and instructions for making jewelry. It just pays for my bead bills and a bit more, so I still have a 'day job'. My love for collectible beads started on my Silk Road trip in 2007. I had bought many beads, and wanted to know what I actually bought. That's when I found this forum, and was hooked straight away. Since then, I have fallen for the Venetian millefiori beads, and am trying to collect as many different patterns as possible (about 400 so far). In the bead subscription I also started a deluxe version, where people get one or more collectoble beads each month as well as the more common beads. This is mostly just a great excuse for me to go out and buy great beads. Because somehow, I always seem to have some left over...... All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users |
