Brass Circles Necklace

This has been a work in progress for a while – the links and pendant were a natural pairing – the strung portion took a while of thinking to find the right solution. The circles are brushed aged brass, and the transparent pendant bead and matching nugget beads are raku glass. The strung portion is […]

Made with pink glass pearls and champagne freshwater pearls, this necklace set also has rose quartz beads and large ocean jasper beads with pink swirls. There are gold metal spacers and a flower toggle clasp. The necklace is 17″ in length and bracelet is 8.5″.

Pink Lemonade With Mint Necklace

This was my very first attempt at hand knotting beads. I was so nervous but had to try it. I loved the beautiful contrast that the color salmon has against turquoise. So, with this piece, I hand knotted polished round volcano cherry quartz agate & a stabilized oval turquoise bead on white nylon/silk thread for […]

Coral Blues Necklace

The inspiration for this piece comes from the coral reefs, which to me is a beautiful harmonious blend of colour. I used American turquoise and pink salmon semi-precious beads for this necklace. For the centrepiece, individual beads were suspended on hand-made sterling silver head pins which were then strung unto beading wire. To finish off […]

Marshmallow Turquoise And Chain Necklace

For this necklace I used round marshmallow turquoise beads, cultured freshwater pearls, and sterling silver chain. The beads are strung on .019 softflex and then crimped onto the chain. I used a round hammered toggle clasp which is wire wrapped to a pearl and then the chain. I love how the pearls work with the […]

Tibetan Colors Necklace

I found the center bead at the local bead shop in my college town. The bead inspired me to make a necklace similar to the necklaces traditionally worn by Tibetans. In general, the necklaces are rather large so I simplified mine to a size that fits my style. The materials used in the necklace were […]

Southwestern Three Strand Necklace

This is a 19 inch 3 strand necklace with sodalite beads and brickstone beads with silver spacers. The contrast between the two colors is stark, which I think is part of the appeal. I was aiming for a southwestern look when I designed it, with the silver, reddish-brown, and blue combination. Because the colors are […]

Turquoise Butterfly Necklace

This delicate turquoise necklace is accented with silver jump rings and complemented with a silver butterfly pendant. An intricate toggle clasp finishes the piece.

Cotton Candy Necklace

I love pink and I wanted to make a necklace using pink glass beads. So when I finally found the right color pink glass beads I used them to make this piece which I named after cotton candy. The white beads are acrylic, the pink beads are glass, and there are silver toned spacers used […]

Blue Mother Of Pearls With Opals Necklace

My favorite summer vacation destination is Hawaii. I just love the color of Hawaiian ocean and that is what I tried to capture with this necklace. For calm ocean, I used different sizes of mother of pearl flat shape beads with round shape one. I used opal round beads, roundelles and bicones as well as […]

Turquoise Mist Necklace

This necklace features 3 strands of silver glass seed beads that space a random pattern of turquoise briolettes, turquoise 4mm rounds, and quartz ovals. The clasp is a sterling silver toggle with delicate details. I was inspired by the briolettes when they were still on the strands that I bought them on and they were […]

The Krishna Indian Deity Necklace

My love for all things royal and majestic is never ending. When I receive a handmade pendant, something just runs through me and the feeling is heightened even more when I find the complimenting beads to uplift the pendant. The Krishna necklace is constructed on softflex wire for flexibility. I wanted something that would add […]

Sparkly organza ribbon, mixed with swirly blue lampwork beads and lovely amazonite finish off this necklace which is truly unique!

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. I used the puffed coins of porcelain jasper as the inspiration for the color palette. I paired them with porcelain jasper rondelles, freshwater pearls, wooden wheel beads, and glass seed beads in a […]

Ms. Suge Sugilite Necklace

This necklace was inspired by the Suge Avery character from the movie, “The Color Purple”. It is made up of several layers of deeply etched brass tubes which reflect the troubled layers her character possessed. The faceted crystal stones, potato pearls, mother of pearl shell beads and amethyst chips creates a halo that enhances the […]

This necklace consists of Swarovski crystals and pearls, Czech glass and very unique focal beads. Tiger tail wire was used to string the beads. I have also used antique gold bead caps to accentuate some of the glass beads. The necklace has an antique gold J clasp with a baroque style. The Swarovski crystal colors […]
