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.
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.
Wired Copper Pendant
I discovered this large chunk of solid copper on vacation. I love the richness of color in copper. I think it looks great surrounded by silver as the two compliment each other. Of course this nugget had to be wrapped in wire as there is no hole…I don’t drill…but it was just enough to accent […]
Maharani’s Pendant
“Maharani” means “Queen” in India. I call it a Maharani’s pendant because it reminds me of designs worn by the Rajput clan royalty of the olden days from India. I have used 14k gold filled wire to sculpt an 8.20 carat weight of genuine Citrine stone. I have also added a 6mm genuine round Citrine […]
Carmenita Necklace and Earrings
Exotic necklace made of Amethyst stones, red-brown Agate chip stones, Swraovksi pearls. The center drop contains Amethyst and red-brown agate stone (attached with a black Swarovski crystal. I specially designed this for my friend from Vietnam for her birthday. I really like the colour combination. It’s easy to make but takes a lot of patience, […]
Snails Wire Wrapped Jewelry Set
Bracelet, earrings and necklace were made of silver plated wire, twisting around a wire with beads. This piece reminds me snails, therefore I called it so. 🙂
Pearls On A Silver Lily Pad
This pendant combines three of my favorite jewelry making mediums: wire wrapping, beading and Precious Metal Clay (PMC). It all started with a lovely peach colored pearl. I then designed the lily pad of PMC to nestle around the pearl. I wire wrapped the lily pad to transform it into a pendant. It is finished […]
Graphic Feldspar And Smokey Quartz Necklace
I found this beautiful triangular piece of graphic feldspar and thought I would make a great showpiece. I wrapped the parameter of the stone in sterling silver wire to showcase the interesting detail of the stone. To enhance its unique range of brown tones, I paired it with high quality faceted smokey quartz and lustrous […]

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 […]
Splatter Wirework Necklace
This necklace was made from 18 gauge copper wire. I randomly shaped the wire into a design I liked. I added a few copper beads to the wire. I then hammered the copper in a few places, mostly on the curves, to add character. I finished the piece by attaching it to leather cord.
Capri Copper Wire Jewelry Set
Copper wire is curled into s-links, figures of eight and jump rings to make the chain, with the art-deco style pendant pieces. Fire-gold swarovski crystals set off by deep red ones. The result is Italianate, and surprisingly delicate.
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 […]
Spirit Yeah I Have It
I bought this antique key from an antique seller last summer. I finally got the nerve to use it. I attached some dangles of wire-wrapped beads and a SPIRIT charm from Earthenwood Studios, to the handle. The chain is made up of Green jade rectangular tube beads, that are each wire looped to each other […]
Copper Wire Spiral Necklace
The ideas for this set came to me in piece meal. It took longer to decide what to do next than it did to actually make it. The beads in this set are Crazy Horse (which I love), and Natural New Jade for accent beads. The wire is copper. All parts, (except for the beads), […]
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 […]
Coloured Pon Pon Necklace
This necklace was made with 0.80 mm. wire and coloured beads using wire wrapping techniques.
Nesting Bird Necklace
I created this necklace using Vintaj Brass Co. chain. In a few spots around the chain, I attached wire-wrapped red Czech glass beads for accents. The focal I used is a pewter bird bead from Mamacita Beadworks. I used an eye pin, and off the bottom hook, dangled a brass wire nest that I stuffed […]
Primitive Treasure Necklace
I enjoy working with a mixed media–this particular piece is an example of that. A woven waxed cord with 28 of my wire wrapped lampwork beads, each with a malachite bead on each pin. I’ve ended the woven work inside 2 domed lampwork caps. Soldered sterling silver rings hold my handmade centrepiece of textured copper […]
