Withers, Sara

Sara Withers has been working with beads for over 25 years. She started by selling loose Indian beads, supplied by the kilo, wrapped and despatched from a bedroom. This wasn't very fulfilling so she learned to make jewelry from the beads. She now designs and make jewelry with a complex range of beads - either selfmade, commissioned or sourced from interesting suppliers worldwide. Her jewelry is sold in shops and galleries throughout Britain. Sara also takes part in exhibitions and shows her work at a selection of craft fairs and music festivals.

She has written eight books of bead jewelry projects. The most recent are The Encyclopedia of Beading Techniques, co-authored with Stephanie Burnham, and The Encyclopedia of Wire Jewellery Techniques. Sara teaches bead making and bead jewellery making in arts centres around England.
