This weekend, the craft world hones in on Milwaukee for the largest "Bead & Button" show in the world.
Hosted by "Bead & Button Magazine," over 370 craft vendors descend on the Midwest Airlines Center for a public show of do-it-yourself jewelry, crafts and classes all weekend long.
Referred to as one of the "top 10 craft destinations in the world" by USA Today, this year's event honors crafter Anne Mitchell as the recipient of the "2009 Excellence in Bead Artistry Award."
The three-day show boasts 2,500 registrants from around the world. Events culminate in a "Bead Social" Saturday night.
