Something Funky: Custom Designed Beaded Jewelry by Michelle the Bead Lady

Michelle the Bead Lady was the best-kept secret in Montreal. No more. Now that people have gotten wind of her creations, the girl’s on caffeine and adrenaline making the funkiest jewelry around.

“I specialize in custom designed beaded jewelry. I use all kinds of materials (glass, crystal, ceramic and semi-precious stones). I even work with wire, sterling, thread and metal. I seem to have a knack for making special custom-order gifts for the women in the bridal party.”

Using a nifty ‘getting to know you’ questionnaire, she’s right-on with the perfect unique piece every time. You tell her the colour scheme, and Michelle’s good to go …and within your budget! Each piece is personalized by the bride and the questionnaire is included with the gift to see how it all came together.

In addition to bridal party gifts, Michelle also makes party favours. And, again, they’re unique in that every one is hand-made.

And since the Bead Lady really never needs to rest, she also throws bridal party showers

“where we all sit and make the gifts for the guests or the jewelry for the wedding...or just to have a chill night with the ladies.... have some wine and do something crafty!”

Sounds fun, huh? Michelle is a recognized artisan and designer with over 20 years of experience with beads and jewelry. Give her a buzz, and give your guests and bridal party (and you!) a funky treat.

   Michelle's funky and spunky spirit is encapsulated into every one of her magnificent jewelry pieces. I have seen people from age 13 to 84 simply thrilled by her custom creations. Don't let her get away! I would book Michelle for any event where you are looking for that extra special touch.

   I have bought many of Michelle's beautiful and original jewelry and have given many of her works as much appreciated gifts for friends and family. As well as being a funny, sociable lady, she's also very talented!

   Michelle's jewelry just simply "ROCKS". She bailed me out of a few jams...Mother's Day, birthday or a special occasion...when I had no clue what to get I called Michelle. And most of the time, the person I gave the gift to ends up calling Michelle for more jewelry or to help themselves out with a gift idea for someone they know!! Next time your out of ideas for a gift...think about "The Bead Lady"!!

   Having Michelle for a bead party is the only parenting tip I have; no one understands how to develop children's creativity in a positive manner quite like she...

   I don't know what Paula is talking about because I had Michelle come for my 9 year old daughter's party and I was so amazed with the work the girls had created with Michelle. I started to think about the business because I saw how great it can be. I tried and tried to start mu own business but I knew that I would not be able to compare to the great things that other people are doing, like Michelle. She has so many different projects and styles and ways of making the jewelry, there is no way i would be able to compare!
