Updating Universal Templates
I am currently working on updating and improving the Universal Paper Bead Marking Templates. I hope to be finished with the updates by October 10th at the latest. I am also going to be introducing a new winding tool you can use to aid you in storing your template strips that you can make into a "Tape" and store the templates on an empty wire spool. More information on that soon!

NEW! Coloring Pages! I have added a new area in the craft section of the site. You can now get coloring pages! I will be adding them as I have time to do so. Right now, as of March 2, 2024 there are 8 you can choose from and I do plan to add more in the future. The first one is for Everyone but most of them will be available for points and in PDF format only.
About New Updates
On February 17, 2023, I lost everything that was on the site. I made the descision to rebuild the site from scratch and build it the way I used to do it back before 2018 when I moved the site to a new server. If you were a member before February 17, 2023 and you have not signed back up yet, you will have to sign back up as if you never were a member before. This time, memberships are free and they are point based. I am never going to charge for memberships again. I promise!
I reserve the right to make future Brand New Patterns and Projects, I add to the site, only available for purchase through paypal.
Paper bead templates, for the most part, will not be free. They will be available at Etsy as they are now, in bundles. I will make one template out of each machine and printable, but not the universal bundle free so you can see how they work. You can download just one sample of the universal templates so you can see how they work.
Even though this is what I do for a living, I will no longer be offering paid memberships, ever. It's just not worth the effort for what little income I got. My income will be from the paper back books, kindle books, paper bead tools, ad income from Google and YouTube, paper bead templates, and anything I sell on Etsy and Amazon.
October 12, 2024: I just got rid of the automatic ads on my web site, jpfun.com. I am sorry they were there. I did not place them myself. Google did as an experiment. I am really sorry if you had a bad experience by visiting my web site in the last 6 months or so. If you still experience any pop up ads or ads inside of pattern pages you might need to clean the cache on your device to get rid of them completely.
There should only be 3 ads show up on any page. One at the top center, and one on the left and right sides of the site if you are on a computer and only one ad show up on a smaller device like a smart phone.
Again, I am sorry about all of the crazy placed ads.
