Welcome to the Bead Society of the Palm Beaches

The society was formed by a group of fabulous women (who just so happened to be beaders) in 2014 out of a need to build a sense of togetherness among those who have a passion for beading. We invite you to come and share your enthusiasm, talent and creativity.
We will both be glad you did.

Message from the President

Spring is in the air.

 

The world seems to come alive after the winter in which it seemed that everything was grey and dormant. The world fills with color and the scent of delicious greenery. The world that seemed so dull and cold has come alive once again.

 

Beneath the cold hard ground the plants and trees were preparing for rebirth. Spring gives us hope for rejuvenation in our own lives as well. Spring is a time to renew the excitement and zest for life that lives inside. Let your creativity flourish & bloom!

 

Please mark your calendars with all of the fun filled events we have coming up.  You don’t want to get left behind.

 

Happy Spring!

Rhonda

Thank You Members!

OUR MULTIPLE MYELOMA CHARITY FUNDRAISER HELD AT THE MARCH MEETING WAS A BIG SUCCESS!

Thanks to the caring and generosity of our wonderful members, we raised $1000 with our raffles for the “loaded” Yazzi bag.

The Bead Society is matching that amount to bring the total to $2000 for The International Myeloma Foundation, in honor of our past President, Laurie Bye.

A huge thank you to those of you who made donations of kits, gift cards, books and so many other wonderful beading goodies. Thank you for all the many raffle tickets that were purchased. We can really make a difference when we all join together for a cause!

April 20th Bead Soup

This month’s project will be Wire Wrapped Eyeglass holder presented by Paula & Karen Manowitz

As always, if you’d prefer to work on your own project, be sure to bring it along.

Don’t forget your battery operated, portable light.

 

(Please Note: If you have some technique that you’d like to share with our members,
talk with our wonderful in house program director, Mary Busler. Having our members contribute ideas and talents makes it more fun for everyone!)
