Turning Pro, A Guide for the Jewelry Artisan Wanting to Start a Business, began as an academic paper for Jami Monico's master's degree. Jami is now offering her work to beaders on www.luv2bcreative.com. Jami is a lifelong artist — primarily a painter — who started beading a couple of years ago and has now started her own business in the Omaha area. She started corresponding with Bead&Button a few months ago and kept us apprised of her progress.
