Bead Stringing & Jasper Jewelry Ideas
Marlee Turquoise Necklace
This necklace was built around these beautiful lampwork beads, to which I added turquoise, picture jasper, and silver-plated spacer beads. I strung the beads on accuflex wire and finished the necklace with a silver “S” hook. I added an extender chain, so that it can be worn short or longer depending on what neckline you […]

The faceted crystal stones, potato pearls, mother of pearl shell beads and amethyst chips creates a halo that enhances the […]
Julie Necklace with Porcelain Jasper
This necklace features three unique strands that compliment each other. I like to layer my necklaces, which is a trendy new fad.

Black Jade With Ocean Jasper And Black Onyx Necklace
I loved the unusual colours of this Ocean Jasper and chose matte black Jade beads to create a choker style necklace and a small 5mm facetted Black Onyx to provide symmetry. I created the tube bail by reticulating and fusing the silver, then forming into a tube and oxidising. To finish I added a necklace […]

I made this necklace using a ceramic pendant that is handmade by RedCrowArts of Etsy. It is handstamped with a leafy pattern and glazed a beautiful green color.

Under The Sea Necklace
One of my favorite stones is ocean jasper and I had to make a necklace featuring these dynamic stones. I grew up on Cape Cod and just loved walking the beach to look for unique stones that told a story. The main focal bead, a 30 x 35mm ocean jasper stone, definitely seems to tell […]
Heart Of Light Necklace
I created this piece from rainforest jasper (rhyolite) and carnelian, and 24k vermeil bali spacers. I was inspired by nature, the lush green of the rainforest, and the glow of an orange sunrise. I used silver-plated beading wire because I love the glow it creates within the carnelian beads. Gold filled twisted crimps, and a […]
