My goal is to bring you great new designs, and to make beading easy and fun. I have tutorials and patterns appropriate for both beginning beaders who are looking to dip their toes in for the first time, and expert beaders who are on the look out for the next amazing design.

I became a full-time beadweaving jewelry designer and teacher in 2004, and have had the pleasure of teaching bead weaving and kumihimo classes all over the world. My home is in Austin, Texas, with my mother (June), and doggo, Poppy.

I have a robust online webstore where my team and I sell beads, findings, tools, kits, and anything else you need to make jewelry. Come check it out at jillwisemandesigns.com! I've also started doing weekly LIVE sales which you can find at jwdlive.com

I am also the author of Jill Wiseman's Beautiful Beaded Ropes, a book released by Lark Publishing in 2012, and was proud to be selected as one of Beadwork Magazine's Designers of the Year for 2013.
