I have been collecting bead magazines for years & today I finally decided to organize them into some kind of order.
I had an AHA moment when I discovered a magazine would fit into a letter size sheet protector....should have thought of this before.
I sorted them by years and name & put them into binders I picked up at my local thrift store.

I put the magazine name & year on the back of the binder. I still have to go through them and put a note on each binder for any of my favourite patterns or stitches. This way I should be able to find what I want without searching for hours!

Here's a picture of them in my bookcase. Eventually I would like to have them all the same size.

 

 

I made the bezel around this cabochon in st petersburg stitch. The chain is made in twisted herringbone stitch.

These 2 necklaces were the first ones I designed myself. I made them with delica beads & in peyote stitch. (I don't like brick stitch)

 

 

 

2008 Canadian quarters I made into earrings & a pendant with sz 11 seed beads & st Petersburg st.
