Vicki Green is one of the 3 co-owners of Dragon’s Lair Beads in Ottawa, along with her sister Nicola and mother, Maureen. The shop has been in business for almost nine years and Vicki is constantly inspired by the creativity of her customers. Vicki enjoys creating jewellery with different mediums especially chainmaille and bead weaving. She loves teaching and has taught many and varied classes in Ottawa and Toronto. Vicki strives for her classes to be a fun and friendly creative experience. Her favourite things, outside of beading, are the Create Your Style Cruises and Walt Disney World.
Nicola Shute is one of the 3 co-owners of Dragon’s Lair Beads in Ottawa, along with sister Vicki and Mom, Maureen. After leaving High Tech to be a stay at home mom, Nicola started beading in her spare time which lead to teaching and the discovery that her creative side was just bursting to get out. Crystal and wire are her personal favourites as they provide so many options for dimension and texture in a piece. Nicola lives in Ottawa with her husband and their 4 grown and growing children.
When not teaching, Vicki and Nicola can be found at the Dragon’s Lair Beads booth #1011.
