In my last post, I shared that on March 6th I'd be meeting with a bead designer to co-design a dagger bead for use in one of my patterns. Well, we created 3 new beads together. Neither of us has ever seen anything like their combination in a dagger, so this is uber exciting to me. I'll give you a small hint...."Gorgeous!" (typed in a sing-songy text). Still keeping the final details secret a bit longer.
The beads will arrive from the Czech Republic about the second week of May. I plan to have some of these beads for sale outside of the kits for which they were made. At the time they debut at the Bead and Button Show, they will be the only beads of their kind for sale in the world (doesn't the thought just make you want to wipe the drool from your mouth?!?!?). The artist who co-designed the bead with me has graciously agreed to let me be the only one to sell them before and through the Bead and Button Show. Her first trunk show is in late June and then she'll begin to sell her half, trunk show by trunk show.
Hope you can make it to the Bead and Button Show this year. If you make it, I (Karen Bruns' Designs) will be in booth #408!
