Ottawa Bead Show

Louise Ingram's beads

On Saturday I went to the 4th Annual Bead Show at the Hellenic Centre on Prince of Wales Drive.
As soon as I came through the door I was delighted by Louise Ingram and her monkey beads http://www.fireseed.ca/.

As I roamed around I was in awe of the talent and creativity in the room.
The next table I went to was Mary Ann Helmond of MA Beads http://www.mabeads.ca/ the peacock necklace that she was wearing is beyond spectacular.  Made entirely of glass beads, the center of each feather is an individual bead made with the image of a peacock on it.

The last booth I visited was Jessie Tesolin, she was sweet, talented, delightful and full of stories.  http://www.jessietesolin.com/
