The sterling silver beads are vintage from the 1960’s. The wire wrapped pendant measures 3 inches. Overall length is 20 inches.

Handmade Chain With Pearls

This necklace I made from wire cutted in to small pieces and made into “links” to from a chain. Light blue swarovski pearls was added to finish it of. This is very time consuming but the result was worth every second.

Brazen Necklace

I created this necklace by stringing African Blue stones, Blueberry glass, Bronzite, Czech Fire-polished bronze glass beads, and seed beads. This necklace is finished off with an antique silver lobster claw clasp.

Shell Necklace and Earrings

This necklace and earring set is made of curly shells, clam puff shells, and 6mm and 4mm green pearls. The findings are silver toggles, headpins and earwires.

Seaside Rendezvous Necklace

I bought the very nice fossilized coral squares first and tried to make them fit with other bead combinations that just weren’t working. I went to a bead show and saw the African opal rondelles and amazonite beads that looked great together and thought of my pretty squares back home. I was delighted that they […]

Crimp with crimper, string four gold plated beads, then a dalmatian bead, gold bead and red sea pearl. Continue to follow the design […]

Two Tone Delight Necklace

Berticulated jasper pendant strung on two pieces of accuflex. Used firepolish crystals, jasper, and seedbeads. The pendant inspired me to make the necklace with alternate colors on each side.

Citrus Delight

The inspiration for this piece was a large, green, carved jade pendant. I’ve been trying for a while to use this pendant in a simple but elegant setting. Done in shades of gold, orange and bright spring green, this necklace uses chunky millefiori beads surrounded by gold-plated hoops. The smaller round green beads are glass […]

Silver Garden Necklace

This sterling silver necklace is made with wire wrapping techniques, which involves cutting wire pieces and wrapping the ends of the wire around varying cylinders. Beads and findings are all sterling silver. Inspired by flowers! The background is a leaf from a bird of paradise plant.

Warm Red Knitted Bead Necklace

I knitted the neck part from waxed cord and I used beads and ribbon for the front piece.

Aqua Circles Necklace

I used silver tigertail and crimp beads to connect the circles to each other. The exposed tigertail is covered in long bugle beads, faux pearls & silver spacers. A lobster clasp is attached to the back. The middle piece is made up of a beaded hairpin. The one side is threaded onto the main piece […]

Poppy Fields Necklace

The poppies have been glorious this year and those sudden flashes of red amongst the green in the countryside, and the lovely focal bead by Ciel Creations inspired me to make this necklace. The basic stitch is spiral weave, using lots of Czech leaf and flower beads as well as a few firepolish crystals. I […]

Mystery Of China Necklace

First I made some different size peyote stitch beads with nylon thread. Then I made one rose from organza and one of iron thread. I then constructed it, using different glass beads between the larger components.

Autumn Jade Necklace

Inspired by colorful, fragrant, crisp autumn leaves. Large slabs of rich yellow jade, small cream and brown round beads of jasper and oval white potato pearls capture the best of my favorite season! Wire-strung with sterling silver crimps and crimp covers. Secured with a magnificent laced, long-oval sterling silver clasp.

Autumn Spirit Necklace

This was made with recycled vintage materials including vintage glass beads, vintage brass beads, and a focal bead made from a vintage earring. I played with the rhythm on this piece, varying the bead positions. My inspiration was the fall season and all its glory. Recycling vintage materials is a wonderful way to be kind […]

A Marriage In Purple

Purple is one of my husband’s favorite colors and animal print is one my weaknesses. So accidentally dropping a dyed hammer-shell bead next to a piece of purple leather in my workroom made me think the two were meant to marry! I accented zebra print shells, mother-of-pearl nugget shells and hand-cut leather with multi-shaped black […]

Scorpion Necklace

For this necklace I used a cabochon with a real scorpion within. I made the combination with shell pieces, bone beads, miyuki seed beads and beautiful filigree beads. The combination of the different materials and the copper and cream colors give this necklace a friendly instead of a scary look.

Pretty as a Picture

This dazzling piece features Grey Agate Nuggets and Rainbow Florite. The Sterling Silver square beads and Sterling Silver Spacers dress this piece up. The clasp is also Sterling Silver with a square boxed shape, with a swirly design. The necklace is approx 18 inches.

Beaded Gold Heart Necklace

Hearts don’t have to be pink! This unique necklace was designed with a stunning large gold heart focal glass bead that has a black and cream swirl design. I added gold foiled glass seed beads, matching yellow crystals and black Swarovski Crystals along with gold plated nugget beads.
