Planning my Website

Thank you all for your comments, especially to Lore for her reference to the Book Arts website. I hadn't seen it, but it is exactly what I had in mind. I thought I would start out with a page on how I became interested in beading and some background on the craft. Then some information on how to select and where to purchase the materials. Then some photos and description of the actual process of creating the beads. I won't know what color schemes I want for the website until I take some pictures of the finished product...something that will nicely offset the jewelry. At first I dreaded this project, but now I am really looking forward to it.

I really like this idea. I'm a huge fan of crafts (I'm a knitter and a wanna-be writer myself), and I think that making a cheery DIY website for glass beads is not only great because of the DIY aspect, but because I don't think a lot of people know how to do it.

I think choosing a color scheme based on a finished piece (or maybe some really unique beads) might work. Look at a few favorite pieces and consider how the colors work together.
