Spring Maiden
Diane Breglieb’s ‘The Face’ accompanied by vintage glass cabs, swarovskis, pearls, and of course, seed beads.
The Love Necklace
This necklace is made of clear fluted fire polished glass beads which have a beautiful Aurora Borealis finish. (An Aurora Borealis Finish refers to a rainbow-like finish added to the outside of the bead. It gives added shine and play of color to each bead.) Each bead is separated with red foil lined glass seed […]
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.
Green Aventurine Pendant Necklace
I have been creatively thinking about how to dress up a plain donut pendant for weeks now and this weekend I finally came up with something new that I really liked that I have not ever seen done anywhere. I got so excited I made 4 new pendant necklaces – spent my entire Sunday making […]
Mother Of Pearl Beaded Necklace
This three strand necklace is made from an old one that I bought when I traveled. I “recycled” the mother of pearl chips by combining them with some seed beads and this little necklace was born! I placed a unique hand made clay bead on the longest strand to give it some weight. The necklace […]
Wise Woman’s Necklace
This piece was created because we are wise women. Our knowledge has been handed down through the wise women of our past and the wise women we deal with today. This multistrand necklace is made of seed beads interspersed with glass leaf-shaped beads. Elegant cones finish off this elegant roit of color.
Blue Agate And Labradorite Necklace
My inspiration for this necklace were these large 12x18mm blue agate beads. They are like a cool faceted barrel. I wanted the blue to stand out so I added the leaf-cut labradorite beads with the blue flash to match the blue in the agate. In between each labradorite are 2 glass beads and a clear […]
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). […]
Crystal Floral Beaded Necklace
This beaded necklace was designed with smoked topaz (brown) Swarovski crystals, brown fossil beads, sterling silver beads, and copper/brown glass seed beads. The large floral pendant gives this necklace a subtle hint of vintage flare. It holds six large topaz rhinestones centered in each individual flower. Matching Swarovski crystals dangle off the end for a […]
Fall Passion Beaded Necklace
This necklace was designed with jet faceted fire polished glass beads, khaki Swarovski Austrian crystals, and beautiful silver caps. The matching pendant is a large glass donut wrapped with black glass seed beads. The necklace measures 19″, with pendant hanging down 2″.
Orange And Blue Swirls Necklace
I wanted to create a piece with bold blues and oranges, a fun color combination I think. I tried a few different pendant ideas which either didn’t sit right on the neck or didn’t work well with the necklace before settling on the pendants in the picture. I used blue 18 gauge wire to create […]
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.
Blue Crescent Necklace
Very simple and fun piece! I’ve used a tigertail wire base, with no clasps. Inexpensive materials include: blue ceramic disc beads in small and large, tiger eye beads, a dichroic glass pendant, and a few metallic seed beads! Make sure to make the initial strand very long! Good luck!
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 […]
Winter Grass Necklace
I have used my own hand rolled paper beads with glass and Chinese nephrite to create this truly unique and unusual neck adornment! There are two different types of paper beads used: rolled magazine and sponge painted construction paper cylinder beads. Both types are clear coated with glossy polyurethane for added durablity.
Ocean Treasures Necklace
Most of my inspiration comes from nature and the environment that I live in. I live on the north coast of British Columbia Canada in a small port/fishing town. When I came across the wire mesh in the teal color I instantly thought of fishing nets capturing the sealife in its path. This is my […]
Summer Anemone
A sunny orange flower design captured in a clear glass bubble surrounded by glass cats eye beads. I was simply inspired by the vibrant colours of summer!
Heart Of Gold Necklace and Bracelet
I made this necklace and bracelet set for my mother — gold is her favorite color. I wanted to make her something I knew she would really like, and as soon as I saw the heart-shaped glass beads with accents of gold and brown, I was totally inspired. I used gold colored beading wire and […]
Elegance Necklace
This necklace is strung on wire with white glass seed beads, brown, yellow and clear crystal 6mm bicones, with a silver plated toggle closure. My inspiration for this piece was simply to try to match a brown, white & black stripe shirt that I have. I think it gives a great business look for the […]
Citrus Choker
This 3-strand choker reminds me of a fruity salad. There’s a strand of red coral round beads, a stand of green peridot beads and a strand of orange carnelian beads all connected with 3-hole metal spacers. The 3″ drop has a large dark green glass teardrop at the end. I also made a bracelet that […]
