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 […]

Antiqued Silver Swirl Pendant

I really enjoyed creating this set. It’s made of 18 gauge sterling silver wire and antique silver beads. For the posts and pendant, I started with the swirls with the beginning of the wire, allowing enough wire at the end to form the posts on the earrings and the bail which is hidden behind the […]

Chrysoprase And Fuchsia Jade Earrings

I wanted to use golden ear wires, but chunky ones rather than the traditional thin gold ones, so I decided to use solid brass. I took thick brass wire and hand formed it into the ear wires, hammered them first flat and then with a specialist hammer to create the texture. I then added small […]

Tayor’s Ice Earrings

When I made these cute earrings, my young neighbor said “those look like ice cubes!” so they became Taylor’s Ice.

Memories Bracelet

This 36 inch bracelet, strung on memory wire, is made with mother of pearl beads, Swarovski round and AB crystal bicone beads and Swarovski fireballs. A friend’s deeply cut in halter top wedding gown inspired me to make this. She wrapped it around her upper arm. The ends of the memory wire can be finished […]

Salmon Coral White Shell Necklace

I have wire wrapped this vintage style necklace with 5 mm round salmon bamboo coral beads and 8 mm round white shell beads into three strands using copper eye pins. One of the strands overlaps the other two strands. I finished it with a brass lobster claw. The length of the necklace is 18 inches.

Good Juju Wire Wrapped Collar

This piece was inspired by a friend’s Kenyan necklace made of bone & horn. I loved the strong shapes and the way the horns tapered around the sides of the neck. My beaded version looks nothing like hers, but it captures a similar earthy, bold feeling. I made frames with 20 gauge sterling plated copper […]

Venture Necklace

This necklace consists of bronze metal chain with round filigree coins, metal beads, opaque Swarovski bicones and Czech faceted beads.

Green Aventurine With Gold Disk Earrings

I wanted to attempt something sculptural with these triangle shaped green aventurine beads. They are polished, but have a matte finish; so I used contrasting shiny 16k gold plated textured disks and 8mm carnelian beads to add color. I like the mix of the different shapes. It’s a bold unique design.

Goddess Pendant Necklace

This 21″ necklace is made using 16ga copper wire, some really nice matte glass beads, and some African trade beads from Ghana. The 4″ bone goddess hangs between two fluted brass beads. I like this necklace for it’s “earthy” feel. The African trade beads were acquired at a flea market where I came upon a […]

Greenpeace Set

The necklace and earring set is made with handmade fimo (polymer clay) beads, Polaris beads, and bronze metal chain.

Forest Rain Labradorite Chandelier Earrings

This labradorite and faceted peridot chandelier earrings was inpsired by my love for the tropical foliage of my childhood city where I grew up in Vietnam. The mystical hues of the labradorites are enhanced by the rich golden 14K gold-filled beads and findings. The kidney earwires are 18K gold. The center beads are faceted Peridot […]

Peaches And Fairy Floss Bracelet

This piece is made of pink AB bicone glass crystal clusters and peach coloured 10mm glass pearls. I used 28 gauge silver wire for the bicone clusters and 20 gauge silver wire to make my own eye pins to link the pearls and the clusters together. I also encased the pearls with some Bali silver […]

Garden of Red WireWork Bracelet

Handmade Lamp Work Beads by Canadian lampwork artist, 925 Silver beads beads and spacer, seed beads, Non-Tarnish Silver Artistic wire, Approx. Length: 15cm from hook.

Turquoise And Copper Vines Necklace Set

This set came to be because of a wedding commission. I wanted to practice the tiara with copper before going with silver, and then decided it would make a great choker! The stones are Turquoise briolettes that I wired together as flowers with a Mookaite center. The leaf accents are also Mookaite. I used multiple […]

By The Light Of The Moon Necklace

This necklace was inspired by a dark/Baroque feel with it’s stamped sterling silver chain and chandelier pendant which is adorned with a selection of hand-wrapped amethyst, jet and black diamond Swarovski crystals. A tiny silver cross and antique style crescent moon and star dangle from the pendant also. To finish off two crystal fire-polished Czech […]

Asymmetrical Leather Necklace

This piece is made with navy blue goat leather (roll and circles) golden wood, resin and chain. I tried to make something very modern and different and the result was amazing. I loved it. I showed it in a Art Fair and it was a success. I sold it as the first place. The colour […]

Asymmetrical Silver Bracelet

I made this bracelet with a wealth of silver elements, some of which were made by me. I have added a unique half aqua and half silver glass rectangular connector. There is also a charm made with an aqua tiger’s eye stone, and the same stone can be found in a silver beadring near the […]

Romance Necklace

This necklace is made of sterling silver chain with a centerpiece of genuine garnet set in sterling silver. The main design is made from sterling silver eyepins threaded with Swarovski montees and finished off with sterling wave chain and two Swarovski heart drops. I decided to make this design as I wanted something very different […]

Pink Dangle Necklace

I found the large silver wire pendant in a craft shop and it took me quite a while to come up with something to put it with. I used bright pink stones along with some pearly beads in pink and cream. I added the bunch to an extra long black cord to create a long […]
