Cliff Swain-Salomon, a beader who had only been working with beads for five short years, was the winner of the BeadDreams People’s Choice Award for 2018. His piece, “Spirit House,” uses so many sources of inspiration that we just had to write about it. In Part 2, we look at how this complex piece came together.

Tubular peyote fish charm
There's no limit to fishing when you're catching these seed bead charmers! Make your own fish to suit your taste. You can shape them to look like real fish or use fun beads for the fins, tails, and eyes to make them as fantastic as you like. After you’ve made a few fish, you’ll learn why fish travel in large schools—because it’s impossible to make just one.
