The Bead Parlor has a bevy of very creative monthly regular Instructors who have made The Bead Parlor their second home. Jean Hickok, Judy Kummer, Gayla Betts, Shelley Nybakke, Julie Dawson, Nancy Griffin, Cynthia Wang, Kathy Cook and more have all helped make The Bead Parlor what it is today: a fun, interesting place to come in and learn all kinds of new techniques and stitches to add to your beading repertoire. They are also very good friends of mine and regular "bead therapy" survivors.
