2015 Bead Challenge
Our 2015 Bead Challenge featured a stunning set of glass etched and frosted beads, in an orange, red and white theme.
The similarity of finish of these beads, provided a unique challenge opportunity for artists. The addition of other complementary beads and findings made for truly magnificent exhibition.
International Tutor, Melanie Potter was our guest judge for this challenge.

BSV Library
The Bead Society has a large Library of book, magazines, and other miscellaneous items such as booklets and DVDs.
These can be borrowed in person from the Carnegie meeting.
Below is a listing of all the items we have in the library. We are working to clean up the list and make it easier to use.
Click on the link and it will open a PDF document listing all the items. It may open in your browser, download it or even open it in Adobe Acrobat Reader. The latter is the best to use, so that you can use the search function. eg, search 'Sabine' to look for books by Sabine Lippert.
The list will be updated every few months, so do check back for the current version.
We welcome feedback on this listing. Please email us.
