I AM Jo...of Jo Barclay Loggie Handmade Jewellery and if I'm not careful, my family are going to disappear in a sea of teeny tiny seed beads!
I'm actually a school teacher - but found that I didn't have enough time for my growing boys (they're now men) as well as a class of 30 five year olds, so something had to give. I still needed an outlet for my creative side and having spent fortunes with the 'Pearl Lady" on each visit back to my birth country, South Africa, I decided to give jewellery making a go.
I started stringing gemstones together and ran a wedding beaded accessory company for a number of years, before managing a local bead shop that sparked my interest in all things tiny and shiny! (We're talking seed beads and shaped beads too). Whilst there I learnt how to write tutorials that were published in all the national magazines - sadly almost history now - and I was teaching 'in person' workshops too.
From there I had a 3 year stint on a jewellery making television channel as one of their guest designers before branching out on my own in about 2018. I have been writing PDF tutorials, filming demonstrations for my YouTube channel and teaching workshops in person and on Zoom ever since and more recently I started selling beading project kits.
It gives me such a huge thrill to see my beading tribe constantly growing and I look forward to welcoming you as a new beadie warrior with us!
