My name is Lana. I live in Phoenix, AZ. My favorite hobby is beading; you can even call it my life.

I think you are going to ask me - "When did it all start?"
Even when I was a child I admired my grandmother's bride's purse made of beads, which was really old and was missing a lot beads.

Then as a student in the Technical University I always tried to decorate my blouses by putting beads in the middle of the flowers or putting tassels of beads on the sleeves or my jackets. Sometimes I would just wear Czech necklaces, which were very popular at that time. I was really started to like designing clothe and decided to go to another University of the designs for women clothing and accessories.

Later on working as a designer in my own firm I understood that beads on the evening dresses make it look unique and that it's very hard to find jewelry that would perfectly fit woman's look and character. That's how I came to a conclusion to make jewelry myself and of course make it out of beads, because I really started to like those small, shiny balls.

Currently I teach beading at home, bead clubs and stores in almost all of Arizona.
I'm very proud of all my students!

In Tucson EXPO center I will be teaching classes for different levels. If you don't find anything interesting in the class schedule please go to my old www.lana-bead.sitecity.ru and new www.lana-bead.info galleries of bead works and let me know what you would like to learn during Tucson Show. Send me a link of that particular bead work and we will disscus the time and the date of your appointment with me at a Tucson EXPO Center during the show in 2008.

Good luck, inspiration, understanding and love to you all! And see you soon!

Every student will receive a surprise gift bag after the class from their instructor.
