DoraWhen I'm not playing Moose, ordering beads, scheduling classes and events, maintaining a happy shop and sharing my design abilities with the Beaders, I teach a few basic classes. Our instructors do a wonderful 'job' teaching all others. |

ScottHello, One of my jobs here at the moose is to take care of the seed beads. When they come in, I put them into the tubes, label the tubes and keep the seed bead wall stocked. I like to work with wire to create different things like spiders, dragon flies and anything else my imagination can come up with.I am learning to work with pmc clay. I have made a few pieces so far and look forward to make more. When I am not working at my regular job or here at the moose, I like to make things in my workshop, ride my motorcycle and 4 wheeler. I would like to thank everybody who has visited us and we hope to see you again soon! |

BronwynI am a teacher of 30 plus years in the public schools. I have been involved in various crafts over the years with particular interest and experience in knitting and spinning. I live in Hermon where I share a home with a dog, four cats, two rabbits and my best friend, Bob. My grandson is usually there too and can be seen often at The Moose adding to his bead stash.I have only been beading since last year when I stopped in at the "Breaded" Moose, thinking I was going to find a new bakery to feed my weakness. Instead I found beautiful baubles and a new addiction(better for the figure). I love teaching about beading and enjoy all my new friends at the Beaded Moose. |

AimeeAimee is a 27 year old mother of one. Beading is something that she loves to do, because in her real life she is an engineer by trade. The organization of the beads appeals to here organized nature. Her favorite beads to work with are seed beads, size 11/0 are the most fun. Stringing is fun, but the freedom of weaving and designing with the smaller beads in the challenge she appreciates. She has been beading off and on for about 10 years, and also likes other types of crafts to work on, and incorporate beading into. |

Phyllis HoupI retired from the FAA in June 2007. I was looking forward to more time with my husband, Don, of 43 years this coming July. We moved into our Newburgh home in December 2005, built by my husband and my son. Our children, their spouses, and 3 beautiful GrandGirls live nearby. We also share this home with 3 crazy cats. About 3 months into retirement I visited The Beaded Moose. I signed up to take a class and here I am 2 years later teaching some of my favorite pieces of jewelry. I enjoy Peyote, Chain Maille and Wire designs. I also have a jewelry business by the name of "Joyful Creations." I look forward to sharing my addiction...OOPS, I mean my new found pleasure with you. Joyfully.... Phyllis |

LoriLori has been involved in all kinds of crafts most of her life and found the beading bug about 6 years ago. The art of bead weaving is something that she self taught herself in honor of her dad, who was an avid Native American beader. Always looking for a new challenge, and a more intricate design. Lori has a habit of always having a bag of beading materials with her where ever she goes. Lori has also found that teaching others to bead gives her great pleasure, and feels like she is keeping a tradition going strong. Recently transplanted from Rhode Island, Lori and her family feel that they are finally home. Along with her husband and mother, she enjoyes her two poodles, two Maine Coon cats, one bunny and one bird. |

Diane HertzlerDiane began beading about sixteen years ago after trying her hand at every other type of art or craft that used a needle or fabric. Beading rapidly became a passion, and she pursued classes with Cynthia Rutledge, Carol Wilcox Wells, Bethany Barry, and other well-known bead artists. Over the last couple of years she has begun creating her own designs which she has shared in Bead & Button Magazine, and in classes that she teaches in local bead studios, the annual Bead & Button Show in Milwaukee, and this past fall at Bead Fest Philadelphia. Her Beaded Pretzel (Creative Twist, Bead & Button, June 2005) was selected as a representative piece of art for the 250th Anniversary of the town of Lititz, PA.The greatest joy of beading for Diane, is watching her students attain enough skill to begin loving the craft as she does. Diane is married and lives with her husband and dog in Mount Gretna, PA, but they spend as much time as possible with their son Christopher in Colorado Springs, or at their camp in Maine. Diane's love of the natural world and travel has greatly influenced her choices of colors, shapes and forms. |
