Hi, I'm Julia
It’s hard to fit what I do into a single title: I create patterns, explore culture and science through content, and co-founded a tech startup. This space is my creative hub, a place to bring together ongoing projects, handmade designs, and ideas that spark curiosity.
Featured collection

Let customers speak for us
from 169 reviewsVery thorough instructions with lots of photos. I can't wait to start making fish, they are adorable!
very easy to understand and follow along. my fish is so cute!!
I debated buying this pattern for a while because it is on the more expensive side of patterns but I just went for it. The author did a magnificent job with this product and frankly I was surprised at how well everything was explained and drawn out on detailed models. Thank you for another fun craft experience!!
I’ve just finished mi first 3D beaded fish. The instructions are very clear and precise , very well explained and easy to catch up. I only had trouble at the end but, now that I’ve done my first, i now how to get better next time. I’ve purchased a bundle so I’m looking forward for the next little project.
The first version of instructions was pretty difficult to start but the updated version is so much easier to follow. Love the outcome!
I have zero experience with making beaded things, but the instructions were easy to follow, it was fun to make, and turned out pretty cute! And it beaded up pretty fast!
Still making this but I have enjoyed it so far. This is my first beaded project and I found the directions clear.
The PDF looks VERY nice and detailed. It also tells me exactly what materials i need and preemptively answers questions i may have.
Just as amazing!
Amazing step by step guide! Will be following for my more patterns!
Such a great pattern! Super cute! Easy to follow after a bit of practice!
Adorable design and the pattern is easy to follow once you have an ok understanding of the stitches used. I've made 5 of these fish so far and they are so cute! Can't wait to make more. Highly recommend!
FAQs
Is this bead crochet?
No, it's not bead crochet. My designs are made using a mix of different bead weaving techniques like peyote, circular beading, and brick stitch and sometimes even a few of my own methods.
Each pattern includes step-by-step illustrated instructions so you can easily follow along and recreate the piece.
Do you provide video tutorials with the patterns?
Not for now, all my patterns come as PDFs with detailed step-by-step illustrations. They’re designed to be as clear and easy to follow as possible.
I may add video tutorials in the future, but for now, the written instructions include close-up diagrams and visual guides for every step.
What beads do you use?
I mostly work with Miyuki Seed Beads (not Delicas), usually in transparent or luster finishes. These beads have a beautiful light reflection and a soft shine that make each piece sparkle just right ✨
Other brands like Toho also work great, as long as the seed beads are very uniform in size and shape.
What thread do you use?
I use Miyuki 330 dtex 100% nylon thread.
Here are a few great alternatives I also like:
- KO (made by Miyuki) or One-G (by Toho)
- Nymo
- FireLine or DuraThread
Whatever you choose, make sure the thread is thin enough to pass through your beads several times and strong enough not to fray easily.
Can I sell the creations I make with your patterns?
Yes, absolutely, you can sell the finished pieces you make using my patterns.
All I ask is that you don’t resell, redistribute, or share the patterns themselves (including screenshots or copies), and please credit the design to me if someone asks where it’s from.
