Gail Jewell After forty years of making seed bead jewelry, at age 60, I decided I wanted to learn to make glass beads. I took to the torch with happy abandon! Soon I had more beads than I knew what to do with........sorta like the old woman who lived in a shoe. Then I had to take up wire work so I could use all these beads. Shortly after that I discovered gemstone and pearl beads......oh, joy! This jewelry making has turned out to be more fun than a barrel of monkeys.
