Joan's Beading Home

Beading is an enjoyable hobby for me. I have made things from developed patterns and have designed my own projects. I am especially fond of Native American type designs. Anything dealing with Nature and her creatures gives me a sense of peace.

I bead wherever I happen to be, whether at our home in Salome, AZ, or on the road in the motor home, as I am in the picutre above. Everything you will see has been hand made by me in the USA.

I have items available for sale and pictures of items I have done before. None of the necklaces and spirit bags are exactly alike as I use different colors, embellishments, types of fringes and straps. If you see something you like but want different colors or size, email me and we can discuss the project.

Sorry, I am unable to sell any patterns. I'm not set up to sell my own patterns and I can't sell anyone else's.

I hope you enjoy browsing this site.

My first Rosette measures about 3" diameter, made with # 11 seed beads on leather. It is beaded on both sides. This is my own design and I used porcupine quills from Goldendale, WA in the fringe. The necklace is tube peyote.
