Miss Betty handmade beads: Luc-sur-Orbiere here I come!

Artist profile

Beth Wurcker, aka Miss Betty, is a Canberra based artisan producing handmade beads and jewellery since 2008.

Miss Betty's beads are made from a variety of materials with polymer being the major player. With its infinite colour palette, strength and versatility as a medium, the results are stunning.

Beth produces wearable, high quality yet affordable one-off pieces, designed to be worn and loved for many years.

Taking inspiration from fabrics, art-even cracks in the footpath, her designs are either monochromatic or richly coloured, but never flashy. Strong patterns and color combinations excite her eye but never seek to dominate the personality of the wearer.

Beth invites commissions for individual beads or complete pieces. Workshops can also be arranged and a one day introduction to polymer clay is offered through the Brain Gym in Weston ACT (please see their website for details).

Luc-sur-Orbiere here I come!

On a whim, I've booked a place at a 4 day polymer clay workshop in the south of France in late September this year. It's a wonderful opportunity to learn from some of the very best polymer clay artists in the business, I can't wait!
