About

Hello my bead friends!
I’m Marina Sokolova. I've been designing frenchbeaded flowers for over 15 years. In my blog you can find almost all of my patterns.
The tutorials are in English and contain detailed description of flowers making and assembly. Written instructions go along with high-quality photos of each step. The PDFs are attached to the posts and are available for instant download as soon as you purchase the post.     
To avoid any problem with purchase, please read this instruction for paying with foreign cards on Boosty.
To increase the chances of a successful payment, first go to your account settings before making a payment attempt:
Next, select the item «Add card»
Select the Correct Payment Method:
- When you're ready to subscribe, please ensure that you select the appropriate payment method for international cards. It’s important not to choose the option for Russian Federation (RF) cards if you are using an international card.
Further, after debiting and returning the test amount, your card will be linked to your account and you can go to the author's page to pay for the subscription. Please follow the instructions below if you encounter a payment error:
Contact Your Bank:
If you encounter any problems during the payment, it's possible that your card
may not support 3D Secure authentication, which our payment partner requires.
Please reach out to your bank’s customer support and request that they enable
3D Secure (3DS) for your card. If your bank confirms that 3DS cannot be
enabled on your card, you will need to use a different card.
Check Your Card Details:
If your card is already linked and you see a masked version of your card number
in the interface, try selecting the option to pay with a new card and enter your
card details afresh. This can sometimes resolve issues with the payment process.
Attempt a Small Transaction:
If your bank assures you that there should be no issues with your card, but the
payment for a large amount does not go through, we recommend trying to make
a small initial payment. This can sometimes help identify and resolve issues
without committing to the full subscription amount.
Contact Support if Necessary:
If the small transaction is successful, but you still encounter problems with the
full payment, please do not hesitate to write to our support team https://boosty.to/app/help
for assistance. However, if the small payment also fails, it is likely that our
payment partner does not accept your card. In this case, unfortunately, there is
nothing more we can do on the project’s side to assist you.

In Progress...

Hello, my bead-lovers. Today I'd like to share with you some picts of the flowers I made last year. Now, I'm coming to the hardest part for me - assembly. It's easier when I have a certain ready arrangement in mind, but this time I just made the flowers which inspired me. So here are my plants for now:

My Nasturtiums patterns)

Hello my friends! Today I’d like to tell you about my Nasturtiums))
They are among of the first flowers I designed. This cheerful bouquet appeared in
2011. The flowers and buds were made with both hex-cuts and beads and there were
orange, yellow and red nasturtiums in my first arrangement.

Hello, my bead fellows! I'm working on Silent Prayer tutorial these days, looking through all photos I've taken while beading. I'd like to share some of them with you today.

My new arrangement Silent Prayer

Hello, my bead friends! Today I’d like to share with you my new
arrangement Silent Prayer which I’ve been busy with for the last 3 months. It
consists of 3 Caladium leaves and 5 terry tulips. The name came from the
symbolism of Caladium – it’s also known as the Heart of Jesus – and from the
bright red of the tulips))

My new work.

Hello, my friends! Two or three (long) ago I bought a small girl-with-butterflies vase at the fix-price shop. Initially, I wanted to fill it with forget-me-nots.  But I was busy with other projects and the vase was left on the shelf for a while. This summer I’ve planted 4 bushes of violets on my balcony and the color of one of them gave me an idea. I cut several florets and put them into the vase. They matched)) I found some weed plants – shepherd’s purse and some plant with similar flowerets - near my house for greenery and started beading.
I used tiny 13/0 Czech beads to make all the plants their natural size.

Sometimes,
you buy a pattern and the instructions seem clear, BUT your petals and leaves
still leave much to be desired. “What’s wrong with it?” you ponder. The aim of
this course is to give you the answers and to help you make your pieces perfect))
