Status of this Site
Although recently updated (02/10/05), this web site is still in the early stages of development. The initial activity of this site will
be to sell books and magazines, the profits from which will be used to support this site.
Ornament Magazines
For those interested in more Ornament Magazines than I show here, I've created a page detailing issues that I don't carry,
but which Ornament does, including prices, shipping charges and contact information. There is an email link at the bottom of the
Ornament Magazine page on this site to Ornament magazine.
Membership in the Center for the Study of Beadwork
It is no longer possible to become a member of the CSB. Back issues of notes from a Beadworker's Journal, however, are still
available for purchase. Unfortunately, although I have a link below for it, I still need to write the copy for that link. Check back in
a few weeks to see if I've gotten the copy written.
Additional Resources
Other resources will continue to be added, including services to the field.
Library
The CSB library is available for research, by appointment.
