Ancient Ruins
This month's Sam’s Bead Box is inspired by the beauty and captivating history of ancient ruins found around the world. It's full of rich red, black, and metallic tones and features a whole lot of textures to design with. Rachel and I recently began working directly with bead makers in the Czech Republic to produce custom beads for the box. The process takes many months but is so worth it! We start by picking the shapes we love for our theme, such as the carved ruin and tablecut trilobite for this box. Then we customize the color and finish we want for each bead.
