In the past I had a webcam set-up where you could take a live sneak into my studio while I was working, but I realized that that's not a particularly helpful way for most people. So, now I am recording what I am doing, and upload it onto Google, where you can watch it whenever it's convenient for YOU.
 
The technology is pretty amazing, but it is far from perfect yet - the picture quality and screen size is marginal, which is due to the specifications of the google system, my camera is capable of a lot more, but then, it's better than nothing.
 
You might find yourself wondering "Why doesn't she move the camera closer", "Why doesn't she zoom in", or, "why doesn't she use a different angle". Trust me, I tried it all, including ductaping the darn camera to my forehead. The way it's now is what works best, with all it's limitations...
 
I hope to offer 2 or 3 new videos every week, to create a library of techniques. You are also welcome to email me and let me know what you would like to see.
 
Since making these videos, as primitive as they might be, is pretty time-intensive (including cleaning up my studio-table every time, so as not to distract you with all the clutter in the background, I thought it would be nice to get a little "token of appreciation". After all, while beadmaking is my passion and my pleasure, it is also a way of making a living right now, and what do they say? "Time is money"? Well, yes, I guess that goes for beadmaking as well. For that purpose I have added a paypal button below- for $ 2.50. IF you enjoyed the video you watched and feel like you have learned something, click on the button, if not, then don't. I will definitely NOT check who watched or who paid, this is entirely voluntary, but greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks so much for your interest in what I do, hope you enjoy my little videos....
