ABOUT THE BEADER.....

Hi, I'm Pat...the first thing I remember making was in Kindergarten.....a pin pricked picture which I thoroughly enjoyed making and turned out to be very well done according to Mrs Cameron....she inspired me with her amazing chalk drawings which appeared every Monday morning on the huge blackboard in our Kindy classroom. I remember my high school art teacher for introducing me to silver jewellery and then my very own husband dragged me into the world of diamonds, pearls and gemstones. Stringing pearls for more than 20 years has led me straight to beads...no surprise these days! I love working with pearls - the look, the feel, the glow.
My daughters inspire me every day - everything I see inspires me in some way - creating means everything to me - every handmade creation amazes me - I can say "I made that" - wow!!
