Today is my first full day in Canada and I'm teaching my Zinnia class at BeadFx.

I am very lucky in my work to be able to travel around and visit different parts of the World. I see shops, beaders and beading in a variety of places and get to enjoy the differences in each one. But until today I have never seen a shop like this! I was blown away by just how much BeadFX contains and how light, airy, spacious, friendly and welcoming it was. I hope all of you who have BeadFX as your local store, or can get then in less than a days travelling, know how lucky you are.

I dream of having a shop like this near me... but I suspect it would not be a good thing for my bank account...

Today's class was lovely and it was such a pleasure to meet everyone and see the colours they used and how they adapted the idea as they worked.
