That would be $300 worth of beading tutorials if I were selling these items separately! But, in this class you get them for just one price... $49.95*

This single price gives you life-time** access to all the materials in the class, so you can work in your own time, at your own pace and decide when you start and finish.


Free Copy of Sweet Treats book!

While stocks last, I will also send you a free copy of Sweet Treats book...no matter where in the world you live! But I do only have limited copies of the book, so don't leave it too long if you want to grab your copy before they all disappear.


So, if you would like to see more details about the exact projects you will have available, please scroll down through the course curriculum below (you will need to click on the arrow at the bottom, to expand the full curriculum). And you will see that you can preview some of the sections for free, now. These will give you a chance to view the quality of the technique videos, and also see the full details of the projects you could be making.


*Depending on your location, Teachable may apply an additional digital sales tax on top of this price - the tax is levied by your local government and goes straight to them not to me.

Note: replacements cannot be sent for copies of the book that are lost in the mail. The physical book offer is dependent upon stock and may be removed without notice at any time.

**Life-time is defined as the life-time of this beading school (and I have no plans to close it!).

How does the class work?

Once you are enrolled, you get immediate access to the projects that have been released so far (new projects will be released during International Beading Week at the end of July 2022).

You can work through all the materials in your own time, at your own pace.

The PDF tutorials can all be downloaded to save to your device, or print out and use. You will need to be logged in to the class to view the video demonstrations.

You can view this material as often as you wish, work through it in any order, and come back to the class at any time. So, this is very much something that you can enjoy over your entire beading life.

What techniques do the projects use?

Most of these projects are made in Peyote stitch. A couple also include some brick stitch and some Herringbone techniques. All the techniques are demonstrated on video, though, so if they are new to you, you have everything you need to learn them.

What materials will I need?

Most of these projects are made using Delica beads or basic seed beads. A couple use shaped seed beads for elements of embellishment. Two of the beaded boxes are made with Superduos, and a couple of projects use Peanut beads to create texture.

All of these beads are readily available in any good bead store.

You will also need beading thread, and, for some projects, you may need some stuffing (scraps of tissue, bubble wrap, or toy stuffing all work well).

What level of skill are these projects?

They vary. So, you will find some projects in here that are great for beginners, plenty for intermediate level, and some advanced level. This is ideal for building your personal skills and confidence.

So, even if you do not yet have the skills for all of these projects, the combination of tutorials and videos will teach you everything you need to know. And this will be a brilliant class for learning, developing your confidence and growing as a beader!

Hi! I'm Katie and I'm here to help you become a better beader. Now, no matter whether you've just started out or you've been beading for a while, you probably come across things you don't understand or can't do.

So, that's where I come in. I've been beading since 2003. I was self-taught originally, so I'm pretty sure that whatever 'pain point' you're currently experiencing, it's something I've also faced and overcome. Which means I understand your frustration, but I can also help you to find a way through it.

My own beading experience covers a multitude of different techniques (beadweaving, French beading, bead embroidery and more!). I've published books, patterns in magazines, I even edited a beading magazine for 3 years! And I'm a qualified teacher.

All of that is very nice, but it's not what drives me. I am passionate about beading, in all its forms, and I want others to share that passion. So, my dream is to help more people, like you, to get the most out of their beading. That's why I set up the 'Become a Better Beader' group and why I started publishing beading courses. I've developed the courses specifically to address the things that people tell me they are struggling with. So, if there's something you find difficult, let me know about it.

You can also access hundreds of free informational blogs about beading and join the 'Better Beader' group at www.myworldofbeads.com.
