New Year's Beading Tradition

Do you have the basic beading supplies to begin your beadwork project? Check for beading thread, beading needles, a loom if it is called for, the pattern pr project notes, any instructions or beading tutorials you'll need, a bead board of needed, a place to do the beading (important!) any work surface covers, thread conditioners, etc. Also, make sure that you have a place to store your bead while you are not working that is secure and free from dust and disturbances such as pets or passersby. Keep the work in a secure place so it will not be tipped over accidentally or knocked off a shelf. A disaster like that can spell the end of a wonderful beading project.
