Makers in Business Episode 3 - Liz Stewart of Lush Beads

The Lizzes

In Episode 3 of Makers in Business I talk with Liz Stewart of Lush Beads. Liz and I have been friends since I introduced myself to her when she opened a retail bead supply shop on Merrimack Street in downtown Lowell, MA.

Our lively conversation covers how she got started in the business and the choices and challenges she's faced as an independent shop owner and maker.



Please check out Liz's website and visit her shop when you are in town!

  1. What a delightful guest for your show. Liz Stewart has had so many interesting careers !

    Her beadwork is stunning. Her industrial pieces are beautiful and fascinating and wonderfully amusing.

    One also get an idea of how much courage it takes to be a Maker in Business.

  5. You just have one of the kindest most open faces in the craft business. I mean your smile just sort of says,
    "come on by and lets talk and make something". Just had to "drop by" and tell you how much I admire your skills and "your mill". We just cannot seem to get that going here in Connecticut! Sigh.
