Katherine Cole, the bead crafter, will give a presentation on the history of beads and her jewelry making on August 4 at noon at the Mesquite Fine Arts Gallery, 15 W. Mesquite Boulevard. Cole has been creative in many different design endeavors from a very young age and discovered the wonderful world of beads as a form of artistic expression during her design career. She currently concentrates on glass work in the form of both lampworking and fusing glass as well as beadweaving. She also has a line of unique designs featuring Swarovski crystal. She has taught classes in Reno and Mesquite on various methods of jewelry making from stringing and wire wrapping to beadweaving.
She has some very lovely things witch would be nice for kids to learn how to make
