WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE BEADING OR JEWELRY MAKING TECHNIQUE?
\n
My favorite thing to do is to learn new techniques. I like to collect different skills and techniques when it comes to beading and crafting in general. Right now, I've been doing a lot of stringing, but I like seed bead weaving, chain maille, making French Beaded Flowers, and knotting with string and with wire the best.
