Bead Fest is a bead and jewelry show where jewelry designers at all levels of expertise enhance their skills or learn new skills from talented instructors. Added to this is a Shopping Expo featuring hundreds of exhibitors displaying beads, gems, tools.. everything you need to design beautiful jewelry. Bead Fest Philadelphia is the largest show of its kind on the East Coast with 170 workshops and 350 exhibitors. No wonder iKandies is excited about attending this event!
We recently began exploring the world of metal working at the Bead and Button Show in Milwaukee. Here are a few pics of a Fold form bracelet that was constructed at that show:

| Wild Woman Bangles |
We'll post the results of our classes when we return from the show!
