Simply Beads launched in January 2005 in response to growing interest in beading. The February issue features 100 pages of beading patterns, how-to articles and information about beads and beading accessories. It includes full-color photos with each design and patterns for every skill level.
Molly Schaller has been the editor of Simply Beads since June 2006. She is an experienced writer, designer and editor who creates and sells her own jewelry at festivals and shows nationwide.
"The February issue is filled with wonderful projects and new products," said Schaller, "and there’s a new regular feature called Accessorize It, which features easy-to-make beaded accessories that are wonderful for wearing and for giving as gifts."
Simply Beads includes casual beaded creations and elegant designs that are quick to make - many in one evening.
The February issue features bracelets, earrings, necklaces, chokers and charms in a variety of shapes, sizes and colors. There are projects made from crystal beads, shell pendants, chains and an assortment of round beads.
Simply Beads is available by subscription from the magazine Web site at SimplyBeadsMagazine.com.
