Shades of Amber – Watch Bracelet

Silver colored watch bracelet with various shades of brown glass beads. Simple clasp for easy wearing.

Angel Story Charm Bracelet

I particularly love the angel charm in the middle as she seems to be in thought or having a quiet moment. I wanted to make something that was a little fairytale-like and sweet, so I put the basket and umbrella as part of the design, making them seem like they belong to the angel. The […]

Courage Under Fire Necklace

I used a combination of red coral chips and chunks with cube shaped, black onyx beads, spaced throughout with silver toned spacer beads. This necklace was strung on tiger tail wire. I liked the almost punky look of this piece and the combo of red and black. Finished with a sterling silver toggle clasp. 20″ […]

Porcelain With Blues Neckace

I love the delicacy of patterns found in porcelain beads. This piece is longer–strung on 6 strands of 20 inches of tiger tail, 3 strands on each side. I wove seed beads in shades of blue, green and gold are together with electric blue glass beads and porcelain beads, (rounds as well as cylindrical beads). […]

Carnelian Earrings

Carnelian is a beautiful stone! It goes perfectly with copper. Beneath a copper metal connector I hung a gold glass cube, a copper cube, a faceted fire polished amber colored bead and a polished oval carnelian. The colors complement each other beautifully. The beads are strong on decorative headpins and the earrings hang from sterling […]

Silver And Copper Scroll Bracelet

I wanted to make something that used both copper and silver wire and I wanted it to be feminine. This is what I came up with. One of a kind bracelet is made with sterling silver and copper. The individual pieces were shaped by hand then soldered in place and given a light brushed finish.

Shanghai Rose Necklace Set

This necklace consists of different shades of pink and rose. A Thai silver spiral pendant is the focus and the two strands are composed of Thai silver, crackled mother of pearl, Swarovski crystal and Japanese seed beads. The necklace is finished with a sterling silver toggle clasp and has an overall length of 24 inches. […]

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.

Green Man Necklace

I fell in love with this Green Man lampwork bead, from Claire-Louise Patrick of Ciel Creations and wanted to make something that would suggest the abundance of the life cycle he represents. The necklace is in freeform spiral weave using Japanese seed beads with lots of Czech pressed glass leaves with flowers and butterflies and […]

Autumn Shells Necklace

This necklace is made of shells, freshwater pearls, brass spacers, and carnelian beads. I finished it with a mermaid toggle clasp.

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.

Copper Green Banded Bracelet

This bracelet features my own handmade lampwork beads, sterling silver, and fluted Czech glass beads. I made the beads by creating a round ivory colored base, added a copper green stripe, then a black stripe. The beads were annealed in a kiln and then cleaned. Finally I soaked the beads in an acid etching solution […]

Have A Green Day Bracelet

I used all green, white, black glass luster beads, with some gold colored seed beads strung on memory wire coil. I added one charm on each end of the memory wire coil. I loved the colors of the beads and the colors inspired me to make the bracelet.

Jessica’s Big Blue Glass Drop Necklace

Inspired by a friend who wanted something bright for an outfit, this dichroic glass necklace was designed with a simple bright blue oversized glass drop hanging on small silver lined crystal seed beads (so they wouldn’t compete with the drop and would add some “bling” at the same time). While simply composed, this piece is […]

Terra Cotta & Turquoise Necklace

This necklace has a silver toggle that goes in front. Whenever I see someone wearing a necklace of this style, I always love the way it looks. This one consists of 4 mm terra cotta beads, turquoise stones, teal-colored “E” beads, short bugle beads in white, and silver wire coils I shaped with round-nose pliers. […]

Hemp Nursing Necklace

This is a tester hemp nursing necklace. I just used 4 red gem beads, 2 tibetan silver beads and a poppy jasper donut.

Orange Clay Bead Choker

Very simple choker but I really like it. These are orange clay beads, I think 10mm spaced with 4mm black beads. It’s attached in the back with a simple toggle clasp and a piece of silver plated chain. The crimp beads at the ends are covered with silver bead caps. This necklace looks great.

Moon Shadow

Sparkling Fimo clay dances amidst cubed magnetic hematite, black stone and silver spacers. Measures 8″ long.

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 […]

Emerald Pearl And Torched Copper Necklace

This necklace is really easy to make. On beading wire I strung alternating emerald potato pearls with black seed beads. On each end I used a split ring and on one side is chain for adjustable length and on the other side is a hand made clasp using 20g silver wire. For the pendant I […]
