Lauren Harpster is a well-known professional designer in the world of French Beaded Flowers.

Largely self-taught, Lauren has been making and designing flowers in this unique technique for nine years, and is highly dedicated to teaching and promoting the art. Her designs are well-loved for their realism, and for the thoroughness she employs in teaching them both with written instructions, a plethora of high quality photographs, and sometimes videos. Her first book, "Christmas Collection" was published in December, 2017, and she has many forthcoming books and publications.
