About Us
There’s a reason my blog is called The Chatty Beader. I like to share, chat and laugh while interacting with customers; it’s a fun way to learn a bit about their personality, favorite colors and interests. I love pulling together personalized collections of beads and charms to fill a bracelet or necklace for someone special. Most people aren’t like me; they don’t have the time or inclination to choose from so many charm options. I love working with all the colors! They bring me joy which produces endorphins which increases the quality of my life!
I’ve got to admit, this isn’t at all what I envisioned when I began collecting glass beads. At first, I just wanted to build a collection of beautiful, small-holed glass beads with the hopes of spending lots of time creating pretty glass jewelry. However, during the past few years I’ve become more fascinated with the glass bead charms that typically have large, silver lined holes. Each European bead charm is a mini work of art! This continues to intrigue me!
By the time I’ve photographed, named, numbered, and described a bead, I feel like I’m on speaking terms with it! Seriously, I know every charm in my collection and I think that’s what makes my Boutique unique.
A friend joked that I have moved all my beads into a laptop. Sometimes I feel like I moved into the laptop too!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope to see you again soon!
