Beader's Ethics:
La Mia Felicita takes great pride in maintaining a high level of ethical conduct in all aspects of the store. Below is a copyright-free version of an ethics guideline from Bead & Button Magazine that I strictly adhere to. You can be assured that I have contacted the designer/artist for all of the designs that are taught at La Mia Felicita, and have their permission to teach them.
At the beginning of every class, I make sure that all my students are aware of who the original designer is, and that I have permission to teach this class. If there are any class hand-outs for a design other than my own, the designer/artist information will be on that hand-out. Please feel free to ask me to see a hardcopy of the designer's/artist's permission for a particular class at any time.
A Beader's Ethics
Provided, copyright-free by Bead & Button Magazine.
1) It is unethical to copy an artist's work to sell without the artist's permission.
2) It is unethical to copy any work that has appeared in a magazine, book, or website and represent it in any venue as an original design.
3) It is unethical to teach a beading project that has appeared in a magazine, book, or website without the artist's permission.
4) It is unethical to teach a beading project learned in another teacher's class without the teacher's permission.
Thank you,
Cathy Tedesco
Designer/Owner

Ethics: (def.) The word ethics is derived from the Greek word ethos, which means "character," and from the Latin word mores, which means "customs".
In modern society, it defines how individuals, business professionals, and corporations choose to interact with one another.
