Lauren Harpster
Hello! My name is Lauren Harpster and I’m the owner and designer at Bead & Blossom. Making French Beaded Flowers is more than just a hobby for me-it’s a calling. I discovered French Beading by chance years ago, as I was trying to learn new bead weaving techniques. It was a fascinating art that combined my love of flowers with my love of beads. I needed to learn how to make them!
Through my years of trying to help others learn how to make French Beaded Flowers, I have developed a way of looking at techniques that’s a little bit different than other designers and teachers.Karin LaPann
