“It can't beat us!" Pa said.
"Can't it, Pa?" Laura asked stupidly.
"No," said Pa. "It's got to quit sometime and we don't. It can't lick us. We won't give up."
Then Laura felt a warmth inside her. It was very small but it was strong. It was steady, like a tiny light in the dark, and it burned very low but no winds could make it flicker because it would not give up.”
-Laura Ingalls Wilder

Adventure is out there! And we are ready for it. Tackle this new cuff design as you would any adventure: with steady hands, a mind ready to learn, and a heart open to a challenge. Each sample, named for one of our favorite adventurous women authors, will bring you on a journey of beadweaving to create a gorgeous beaded bead to slide onto a wide leather cuff. 

Originally designed as a kit for The Great Bead Extravaganza's 2023 Midsummer Market, this bracelet can be easily recreated using our new 20mm strap leather, 20mm clasps, and a strand of Little Shadows! Take note: our new leather is not textured as you see in the finished sample photo, which is a photo from our kit.

Please join us as our worldwide community gathers on Facebook and YouTube at 10:30am Pacific Time on August 22nd, 2023. It’s so much fun to go live with us and bead together! After the live broadcast the video will be available above.
