Crafts have been part of my life since I was a child. I studied fashion design in New York City and my education led to a teaching career. My intrigue for beads began when I received my fi rst bead magazine. I draw inspiration from architecture, nature, culture, and my dreams. With my background in education, teaching beadwork seems like a natural progression in sharing my enthusiasm for beads. Visit www.facebook.com/JLH-Designs-by-Jacqui-Higgins

I’m a Hungarian fulltime bead jewelry designer and teacher who lives in Austria. Originally a leatherworker, I stitched my fi rst jewelry in 2007 and I’ve been a beading addict ever since. I am inspired by colors, shapes, beads, experiences, films, and friends, plus beautiful new bead shapes and base materials. My favorite projects are beaded beads and pendants. My husband is a graphic designer and, with his help, I have made nearly 550 patterns over the years that even a beginner can follow. I have two children.Visit www.beadsbyvezsuzsi.etsy.com.
