Butterfly Brown Necklace
This necklace consists of many of my handmade lampwork beads, gemstones and Japanese seed beads. My theme and colour palette were decided upon as part of a nature series, this piece being the butterfly. I have hand forged silver pieces to represent the slender butterly feelers, with my lampwork glass butterfly sculpture becoming the focal […]
Purple and Blue Beaded Necklace
I used purple pearls, metal flowers, dark blue seed beads, and light blue crystals to make this piece. It has a lobster clasp set with crimp beads. I used wire, but beading thread can work too. String the beads in a pattern of two seed beads, then a purple pearl, then a blue crystal, then […]
Australian Outback Evening Sky
This necklace is a wonderful two strand necklace with a lobster claw clasp. One stand is 17″ and the other is 19″. I created a matching 3 strand bracelet and earrings to accompany this necklace. I used fire polished glass beads in the shapes of butterflies and circles with moon and stars, silver cast metal […]
Retro Glamour Necklace
I have strung an old black floral button with a diamantee attached on to an antique silver style cable chain. Faceted black beads, Swarovski crystals, pink licorice beads and another old button are mixed together to create this necklace. I tried to create a retro feel with this necklace by using beads that reminded me […]
Olivia Necklace
The blue, green and dark grey 6 mm bead combination and the intricate central motif add up to a vibrant necklace that makes me think about spring and blossoms. This necklace measures about 46cm and it is finished with a silver plated lobster clasp and a chain that makes it adjustable.
Byzantine Rose Choker With Fresh Water Pearls
This is a Byzantine rose weave with fresh water pearl dangles. I coiled and cut the rings myself except for the dangle chain. I purchased the rings to make them. The rings used are 5mm ID and 3.5mm ID 18 gauge on the main choker and the dangle chains are 2.5mm 22 gauge. Fresh water […]
Green Lariat Necklace
Black stones with green marbling are highlighted by lime green crystal & gold spacers. Gold chain hangs through the jade donut.
St. Tropez Wire Pendant
This piece is inspired by mid summer-the colours look so cool on a hot hot day, the colours make me think beach sand and cocktails!
Mountain Mist Necklace
I love being able to use up leftover beads to create a beautiful eclectic piece. I used gold beading wire to string green agate chips, green glass beads of different shapes and sizes, clear Swarovski bicones, and green metallic seed beads. This is one of my favorite brass clasps, so I had to have it […]
Earthy Delights 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. I paired this pendant with gorgeous fancy jasper disc beads, green spotty Czech glass, faceted glass rondelles, and teal blue glass petal beads. On the front of […]
Purple Resin Necklace
This necklace was made with two different sizes of purple resin beads and strung on pink tiger tail. The resin pieces are quite bold and nothing like I have seen before.
Treasure Box Necklace Set
The inspiration for this set was the antique gold finish filigree pieces that seem to have a charm all their own. I connected the filigree pieces with jump rings, strung deep red, small glass disks, garnet and lime Swarovski crystals onto olive colored beading wire, and repeated the process to add more filigree pieces and […]
Fall Steampunk Collar Necklace
In this lovely necklace, I used clay cabochons with citrine stones in them, Swarovski stones, Miyuki beads, delica, rocaille and bugles and steampunk elements.
Copper, Wood & Bali Bead Ornate Pendant
The focal drop is a hand crafted lampwork bead that is clear with a copper swirl lining. The necklace includes dark wood round beads, Czech faceted smokey brown beads and some silver coloured metal Bali-like beads, bead caps and hanger to finish. The seed beads are clear dark brown and the bugle beads are metallic […]
Hippy Chick Necklace
I used a Bronze Metal Clay pendant by Summers Studio, lengths of brass chain, and an assortment of Czech glass beads, leaves, and flowers. I wanted to make something airy, fun, and a little playful without it being too girly-girl. It can be worn with jeans and a t-shirt or a blouse and a long, […]
Vintage Locket Necklace
This necklace uses a vintage brass floral locket as a pendant. The locket is wire wrapped to a mix of white freshwater pearls and faceted clear quartz. The stones are then connected to a medium weight gold filled cable chain. The necklace has an adjustable length of 19 to 21 inches, with a keishi pearl […]
Dragonfly Billabong Necklace
Dragonfly Billabong is a representation of the centrality of water in Australia, a country where droughts feature often with a few “good” years thrown in between in order to make us forget. I used Lacy’s Stiff Stuff as the foundation. I dyed the white foundation with permanent black dye powder mixed into water and let […]
Theatre Memory Wire Necklace
This necklace consists of memory wire, seed beeds, small Swarowski beads, and pendants.
The Raya Necklace
The wooden crescent used in this piece was part of findings reserved for an upcoming collection for Chanel. I was lucky to run across this piece. The texture is very smooth and the pendant is large and unique. I added intricately carved cylinder wood as an accent and coconut beads to complete the necklace. I […]
