Katalin Budaine' Nagy

My name is Katalin Budainé Nagy, alias BéKata.

 

I live in Budapest, Hungary. I have always loved all kinds of creativity, in my younger years I was sewing, drawing and painting for years. I graduated as an interior designer in my early thirties, where I studied art history, chromatics, drawing and furniture history amongst other subjects. I enjoyed those years very much, these studies developed my creativity and designing skills. I turned to jewelry making 15 years ago, at first I worked with wire, but that was not for me. Then I started beadweaving, but it was not satisfying enough either, I felt I could not fly high enough. So I decided to try bead embroidery… When I saw the American and Russian ladies’ artworks, I felt I had arrived in my own creative world… I am continuously learning new techniques, looking for new materials, tools, I love mixed media, and my new love is polymer clay. It is huge fun to combine these two techniques, the result is always a completely unique piece of art. I have been teaching bead embroidery in Hungary for 4 years, in the biggest beadshop of Budapest.

Bead Around the World 
"3C" - A thematic collection by
BéKata

What is the meaning of "3C"? It refers to the design workshops focused on Continents, Countries, and Cultures. The projects covered in these workshops include China, Japan, the Inca Empire, India, Mexico, Africa, Egypt, Arabia, Greece, Celtic-Scandinavia, the Caribbean, and Hungary.

During the classes, we will undertake a project designed by BéKata, inspired by the color schemes seen in the title photos on the class registration pages. Please note that these photos are not representative of the actual project; they were generated by AI based on Kata's input regarding the desired design type and color preferences. Moreover, in addition to the regular 6-hour project-based class, we have included an extra hour in each session to teach you how to design your own projects with the help of artificial intelligence. These workshops aim to guide you in overcoming creative blocks when you lack inspiration.

The design workshops will cover the following topics:

  • The utilization of artificial intelligence in jewelry design.

  • Approaches to reaching the final design.

  • Important considerations during the design process.

  • Brief cultural insights related to each workshop's theme.

  • Collaborative project creation.

Given that all the classes are bound to be fabulous, we understand that choosing among them might be challenging. To address this, we have devised a program that allows you to participate in all 12 classes by following these steps:

  • Dividing the 12 classes into two groups of six.

  • Combining the price of each class and kit.

  • Offering a package program where you pay for five classes and kits, and receive the sixth class and kit free.

  • If you opt for the package program, you will make eight automatically charged payments of $122.

  • Once you purchase the package program, you can immediately register for all six classes and enjoy a 100% discount, applied at checkout.

If you prefer not to purchase the package program, individual classes and kits are still available for purchase at the full price of $195 each.

If you purchase the pricing plan and any classes are sold out, we will either be adding a 3rd session or will open a seat for you in one of the existing classes dependent on overall demand. 

The special pricing plan is no longer available for 3c- Collection 1-6.  Stay tuned for 3c- Collection 7-12.  You can still enroll in individual classes with space available.

Stop!! Read before registering for 3C classes.

If you signed up for the pricing plan, you should NOT be charged for the individual classes when you register.  If you are not automatically given a full discount, back out and log into your account using the same email address you used when signing up for the package.  If you still don't see the discount please contact me.  If I have to refund you, I will be deducting the full Payment processing fee imposed by the processor (i.e. credit card or PayPal
