Bedecked Beads was launched in July 2009 with a brand new online jewellery shop. The jewellery shop stocks a variety of handmade jewellery. We stock necklaces, bracelets, earrings, jewellery sets, ladies watches, unusual brooches, cufflinks, beaded bookmarks and a recent new line of compact / pocket mirrors. All the jewellery on our website is handcrafted by Valerie Anderson, made at home in Scotland.Our unique designs include something for everyone, gemstone, polymer clay, wirework and beaded jewellery. We love to experiment with different styles such as unusual contemporary, on trend fashion designs to classic one of a kind designs featuring pearls and crystal. You can be assured of the quality of the materials used to create our jewellery as we hand pick all materials used.
Making Beads 
Some beads used in our designs are handmade using polymer clay (Fimo). Polymer clay is blended and made into canes, textured with surface effects or swirled into stunning lentil beads. The beads are baked in the oven, cooled, sanded with three grits of sandpaper and either polished, varnished or waxed to give a smooth finish.
Purchasing our jewellery
Jewellery can be purchased through our online jewellery shop or craft fairs within the Edinburgh and Lothians, Scotland (details on our events page). 
We have a small selection of jewellery available at Potter Around (Ceramic Painting & Craft Studio) Kirknewton, West Lothian.
We can offer a custom / bespoke jewellery design service, so if you want to commission a bespoke piece of jewellery as an anniversary, prom or birthday gift or to co-ordinate and accessorise with a special outfit, please contact us. We can offer anything from a pair of Swarovski crystal earrings to semi precious gemstone necklace or bracelet.
Email us via our contact page and we will be happy to discuss your requirements
Caring for your jewellery
Care for silver plated jewellery as you would your silver jewellery. Protect it from perfumes, hairsprays and other cosmetics as these can erode the plating. Store pieces ofjewellery separately to prevent tangling and damage, ideally storing in separate grip seal bags to protect from tarnishing.Gently buff jewellery with a soft cotton cloth to clean
Store gemstone jewellery out of direct sunlight. Semi precious gemstones are natural materials which can fade when exposed to direct light.
Unlike sterling silver or gold, plated jewellery will eventually wear. Proper cleaning, maintenance, and storage are critical for extending its life usage.
