Buttercup Charm Necklace

I have used a buttercup yellow rose and wire wrapped it along with some beige / latte coloured glass pearls. A little brass key and a flower also dangle from an antique brass hoop to complete the charms. I used antique brass cable chain and a heart lobster clasp to secure. I was inspired by […]

Denim Blues Necklace

Love these big porcelain pendants–this beautiful faded edge one reminds me of faded jeans. It sits well with some simple lampwork beads and a chunky chain. I wire wrapped the opaque indigo glass lampwork beads and combined them with a steel textured oval chain, metallic seed beads, a textured porcelain pendant, and a hook closure.

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 […]

Vintage Treasures Necklace

This necklace is one of a kind. It reminds me of something you would find in a treasure box. The large beads are all vintage. The necklace also contains glass pearls in almond and black, copper Czech glass beads, snowflake obsidian, hematite, and textured circles. I put each individual bead on wire and linked them […]

Antiqued Copper Pearl Necklace

This necklace was designed with 7-8mm antiqued golden copper freshwater cultured pearls. I separated each pearl with small clear glass seed beads. Chrysolite Swarovski Austrian crystals and sterling silver beads are also used to design this necklace. The large pendant measures 2″x2″ and features colors of frosted amber/copper with hints of green. I finished this […]

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 […]

Orange Elegance Necklace

This jasper pendant was so beautiful that I wanted to use it in a necklace that would frame it well. The bright orange and dark orange metal beads woven in with the smaller copper ones created exactly the effect I was looking for–bright, vibrant, and pretty. It measures 18 inches and combines glass orange rounds, […]

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 […]

Amber Double Strand Pendant Necklace

This longer length necklace set is made with lots of amber Czech pressed glass beads, some amber lampwork rounds and lots of silver coloured metal Bali-like beads to finish. The seed beads used are foil lined amber as are the bugle beads. All mounted on nylon cords and silver plated wire. Fastening to the back […]

Brown And Cream Freshwater Pearl Necklace

My love for chocolate inspired this piece. I made it with brown, copper, and creamy pink colored freshwater pearls that I wrapped with 14kt gold filled wire. I decided the Y-drop was the perfect accent for it. I then finished it off with a 14kt gold filled lobster clasp and some medium sized 14kt gold […]

Starry Night Beaded Necklace

I consider simple necklaces very beautiful. When I made this one I used a combination of dark blue semi-precious sodalite and golden Czech crystal glass beads. The colors remind me of a night sky with golden stars. I made the pendant by wrapping sterling silver wire and a few beads around the main sodalite bead. […]

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 […]

Midnight Bloom Necklace

I love vintage style jewelry and wanted a necklace that would be perfect with a little black dress for an evening out. This beaded necklace was made using Swarovski Elements crystals, Miyuki seed beads and silver metal beads. The lacy filigree look of the beaded pendant gives the necklace a 3D effect.

Vintage Locket Necklace

This necklace uses a vintage brass floral locket as a pendant. The locket is wire wrapped to a mix of white freshwater pearls and faceted clear quartz. The stones are then connected to a medium weight gold filled cable chain. The necklace has an adjustable length of 19 to 21 inches, with a keishi pearl […]

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!

Amazonite Necklace With Smoky Quartz And Pearls

This piece is made with antique brass, amazonite, smoky quartz and pearls. Blue and brown make a nice color combo, and amazonite and smoky quartz are two of my favorite gemstones, so I figured the two stones would look great in a necklace with a little bit of white thrown in somewhere. I took a […]

Autumn Flower Necklace

This necklace combines the colours of brass, cream and amethyst. For the chainmail part I used 8mm rings, putting some 6/0 seedbeads on them before closing them. On the bottom of the focal I worked with the seam measure rings. For the connection with the chain I kettled some Swarovski and other beads between the […]

Dragonfly Billabong Necklace

Dragonfly Billabong is a representation of the centrality of water in Australia, a country where droughts feature often with a few “good” years thrown in between in order to make us forget. I used Lacy’s Stiff Stuff as the foundation. I dyed the white foundation with permanent black dye powder mixed into water and let […]

Indian Agate Pendant

This pendant is a natural Indian Agate Stone wrapped with sterling silver half-round wire. When I wrap natural stones, I allow the stone to determine the wrapping. I try to compliment the stone with the style of wrapping that will allow the stone to shine and become a complete accent piece with the wire wrapping.

Purple Jade and Turquoise Necklace With Carved Rose

The beads in this necklace are purple jade and turquoise. The pendant is a carved purple jade rose. It is 26 inches and finished with a sterling silver lobster claw clasp.
