International copyright laws afford Gwen Fisher and Florence Turnour exclusive rights to reproduce and sell, publish images of or professionally teach others to create the jewelry shown on this site, as well as that shown or described in our written patterns. However, we give our customers and visitors to our site limited rights to sell, display and teach beadwork made from our designs. These limited rights are described below; if you wish to use our designs or images in any way not described below, you must obtain our written permission.
You may make beads or finished jewelry to sell using our designs with the following restriction:
You may not reproduce the design for large-scale production and sale without our prior written consent. In particular, you may produce for sale at most three pairs of earrings, three necklaces and three bracelets using one of our designs.
For Example
You may produce for sale three necklaces that include Diamond Net Beaded Beads. You may not produce a fourth necklace with a Diamond Net Beaded Bead for sale. However, you may write to us for more information about a license to sell more Diamond Net Necklaces.
You may display and post pictures of your beadwork made with our designs in public with the following restriction. This restriction holds regardless as to whether or not the beadwork in question is for sale.
If for any reason, you are going to publish, to publicly display (e.g. shop window or contest), or to post on a webpage your beadwork made with our patterns, we ask that you give us credit for the designs with a link to our home page
http://www.beadinfinitum.com.
You may reproduce and distribute our free patterns (for teaching or other purposes), under the following restrictions.
If you would like to reproduce any of our free patterns, we ask you reproduce those patterns in their entirety and that you do not profit from the sale of the pattern or paper itself. You may profit from your time and the sale of beads, but not for our pattern.
You may not reproduce and distribute our patterns for sale or for publication.
You may not professionally teach any of our designs using your own written instructions without our express written consent.
If you would like to teach any of our for-sale patterns, then we ask that you or your students purchase the patterns from us. You may profit from your time and the sale of beads, but not from our pattern.
We have wholesale prices for those interested in purchasing four or more of the same pattern. Contact us for the wholesale price list.
Thank you for respecting our copyright as designers. We want to continue to provide you with our designs, to inspire you to create art. By purchasing our patterns and respecting our copyright, you encourage us to continue creating and writing patterns for our designs.
