Default Beads of Courage eBook is ready and on our website

Hi everyone, for a few months now I've been hard at work putting together a collection of 20 Beads of Courage tutorials by 20 very talented bead artists, and it is finally ready! It is named Hot Glass for Cool Kids (Laurie Ament came up with the name).

or just click my signature below. All of the proceeds go directly to Beads of Courage.

The eBook is 106 pages long and is only $20. It will be delivered to you as an immediate download (PDF) through eJunkie. Let me just say that eJunkie is doing this for us for free because it's BOC! When you go to pay for the eBook you'll go directly to the Beads of Courage PayPal page so the funds go straight to them the minute you buy the eBook.

The artists who contributed to this collection are Laurie Ament, Elizabeth Bunn, Dawn Ceccacci, Debi Cogwell, Suzanne Fragiacomo, Lori Gerrnberg, Marcy Lamberson, Karen Leonardo, Mary Lockwood, Christie Modesti, Sharon Peters, Lori Peterson, Debbie Pierce, Heather Sellers, Robert Simmons, Shannon Vickers, Jeri Warhaftig, Sue Webb, Jolene Wolfe, and Diane Woodall. I am so proud of each and every one of them!

Here is a photo of the beads in the eBook. And if you are at the Gathering, the beads are at the Beads of Courage table in the vendor area. Stop by and see them and tell Ashley I said hi!

Thanks Ginger, coming from BOC's top producing bead artist that means a lot. I'm sure the other artists feel the same.

So how many thousand beads have you made so far this year?

Thanks Jeri, Ginger and Robert. It has been such a rewarding experience and we are getting very close to having sold 400 copies! We may hit that number today sometime.
