Beading Babes - Project 5 ~ May/June 2012

This month I am so excited to announce that we will be featuring the designs of the lovely

Helena Tang-Lim
of 
Manek Beads

I've always been a fan of Helena's work and have had some of her tutorials on my wish list for a while now.
When I received my digital copy of the latest Bead and Button Magazine I instantly fell in love with her Echoes of Nefertiti necklace.

I sent her a quick message on Facebook congratulating her on her design being featured and mentioned that I would be selecting the piece as one of our projects for Project 5.

In turn we started chatting about the group and she kindly offered Beading Babes a special deal on another of her patterns.

Here are the details:

• Purchase Helena's Four Leaf Clover Cuff pattern at the full price of US $12.00 via her online store.

• On the reveal date please share your pictures of your completed pieces (or if you didn't get to finish the piece show that you have made a start).

• Then simply email Helena a link to your blog or Facebook page to receive 50% of the value of the tutorial back.

Please be sure to include BEADING BABES in the email subject to make life a little easier for Helena!

Please note if you purchase the tutorial but cannot show that you have completed or at least attempted to complete the design then you will not receive the 50% refund.

EASY!

In your blog or Facebook post please include at least one picture of your piece, acknowledge Helena Tang-Lim as the designer and kindly provide a link to her store.

Please note this offer is only valid for the e-tutorial version of Four Leaf Clover Cuff only (not Echoes of Nefertiti which is available for free in this month's issue of Bead & Button) and not her printed booklets.

This offer will only be valid for the months of May and June, the duration of Project 5.

So without furtherado here are the two beautiful designs for this month!
