My name is Lana. I live in Phoenix, AZ. My favorite hobby is beading; you can even call it my life.
   I think you are going to ask me - “When did it all start?”
   Even when I was a child I admired my grandmother’s bride’s purse made of beads, which was really old and was missing a lot beads.

   Then as a student in the Technical University I always tried to decorate my blouses by putting beads in the middle of the flowers or putting tassels of beads on the sleeves or my jackets. Sometimes I would just wear Czech necklaces, which were very popular at that time. I was really started to like designing clothe and decided to go to another University of the designs for women clothing and accessories.

       T hree years I worked as a teacher of “The Art of Bead-craft” in Phoenix School of Excellence, the Learning Institute. You can check out the works of my first level students in Gallery 10, the works of my second and third level students - in Gallery 11.
     Then I worked in Trade Wind Gallery for 3 years. I really enjoy working at The Bead Museum., Creative Destination., Bead it, The Beaderie, "High Desert Bead Society"(Prescott). I gladly teach at my house every Monday.
      The works of my adult students are Gallery 12.
           I’m very proud of all my students!
I gladly teach at my house and visit different states with my lectures. If you like my works, I’ll be waiting for your invitation. Write me, ask questions. I’ll gladly respond.
      Good luck, inspiration, understanding and love to you all!!
      Thank you for visiting.
      See you soon.
