Check out the Lakeland Loom Beck Bracelets collection on Etsy!

Beck Bracelets - wear a little piece of the Lakes, wherever you wander.


These are Beck Bracelets - inspired by the play of light on flowing water in the Lake District. They have an adjustable slide clasp to fit any wrist.


Handcrafted in my Lake District studio, each Beck Bracelet is inspired by the streams-"becks", from Od Norse-that flow through fells and forests.


Designed with shimmering glass seed beads, every bracelet captures a different mood of water, light, and landscape: from golden sunlight to frosted winter stillness, hidden woodland pools to twilight skies.


Wear a little piece of the Lake District, wherever you wander!

Seed bead mad (not just looming crazy!)

As you will learn in future blog posts, I was fascinated by seed beads before I’d even heard of looming! Shall I do a blog series about my collection?

Welcome to the Story of my Loom...

Hello, and welcome to my blog.

I'm Katrina, a bead artist based in the English Lake District.

I learned to weave glass seed beads over twenty years ago when my sister brought home a wooden bead loom from the Riverside Craft Centre in Kendal.

We shared that one loom for a while, then my Mum bought me one of my own. I now own eight looms!

I look forward to sharing with you the magic and beauty of Lakeland.

I hope you will visit again soon.

Best wishes,

Katrina
