Dear Beading Friends,

If you’re new to peyote stitch, let me guess: you’ve watched a dozen YouTube videos, read conflicting advice in a few groups, and somehow… it’s still not clicking.
Sound familiar?

You’re not alone. After 35 years of teaching beading, I’ve seen this exact moment trip up so many people—creative, talented people who just needed the right kind of guidance.
And that’s what I love to give.

Peyote stitch isn’t hard. But it can feel hard when you're getting different instructions from every direction. That’s why this month, I’m going back to basics—my way.

One method. One stitch at a time.
Clear instructions. Clean edges. Beautiful results.
And most importantly—confidence that sticks.

My beginner peyote kits aren’t just about making something pretty (though they absolutely are!). They’re about learning the right way from the start. Good habits, smooth thread changes, even tension—those small details that turn frustration into flow.

Every True Beginner peyote kit this month includes my Technique Tuesday Bonus Pack—with needles, threads, my “Getting Started” guide, flat peyote basics, and the exact method I use for changing threads without a single bead flying across the room.

Because you deserve to learn from someone who remembers what it’s like to be new—and who’s spent decades figuring out how to make the process click.

Let’s get you started the right way.
Not just to finish a project—but to become the kind of beader who says, “I’ve got this.”
Because you do.

There are other true beginner kits you can get using different stitches, and you will get the same free package, designed for that stitch.

With sparkle and encouragement,
Glenda
