It took me a while to design this piece, as I wanted to make a modern and colorful cuff but make it edgy and elegant at the same time. Usually I am not a big fan of seed beads but I can see that it works great in this piece. This piece is a combination […]
Inspired by my clever, sweet, tough, loyal daughter, I present this piece which displays nuggets of pink / brown howlite and chocolate brown potato pearls. This piece materialized after my youngest daughter insisted we purchase the howlite beads. If something is pink and interesting, my Georgia will see that it is not left behind. Wire-strung […]
I designed these simple earrings so they would represent the international color for breast cancer awareness and also coordinate with other “pink” pieces I created to support the Young Survival Coalition. I stacked light pink Swavorski cube crystalsaccented with brassheishi beads and hot pink fire polished crystals onto gold-plated head pins and dangled […]
I used 6mm hematite hearts, Japanese pink square beads and pink E beads. To attach these beads I used head and eye pins. I chose faceted black chain and plain pink chain to contrast the colours of the bracelet. Finally I finished the piece using a lobster claw clasp. I simply felt in a creative […]
The materials I used were block glass beads of purple animal print and purple oval beads. The pattern reminded me of spots on a cow, and of being on a farm. I for one am a cow lover. I ended this bracelet off with a heart toggle clasp.
Kaleidescope Cuff is a celebration of colour, form and texture. I started off with a brass blank interior and covered this with pink Ultrasuede. I try to avoid using dressed leather as some people are allergic to the dressing. The Ultrasuede has been glued down with industrial strength glue and cut slightly larger than the cuff […]
I am a huge fan of pearls, and I love to use them in many pieces. In this piece I combined a creme coin shaped pearl with 4mm rose Swarovskicrystals and attached them to an 18 inch silver plated chain. I think they are a great combination!
These drop earrings started with the cute sterling silverbead caps. I paired them with the foiled glass purple beads and thought that looked nice. I did some wire work to attach them all together but they were still lacking something. I looked through my beads and found only two of the delicate faceted purple […]
I wanted to design something fun and flirty for summer. These are a simple strung design bracelet set. They have been made with white quartz chip beads and larger pink oval glass beads, interspersed with silver spacers and fastened with silver toggle clasps. Each bracelet is different, yet made with the same materials, thus giving […]
These earrings are a snap to make using several shades and diameters of pink and purple o-rings. Start with a large jump ring and thread the O-rings on and then attach a small silver O-ring to attach the earwire. The result has a messy charm and adds a pop of color to your outfit.
This piece was constructed with pink and black Swarovskibiconebeads, glass beads with a rose design, silver plated antiqued beads, and a toggle clasp. The beads are strung on tigertail and finished with crimb beads.
This piece is made of pink AB bicone glass crystal clusters and peach coloured 10mm glass pearls. I used 28 gaugesilverwire for the bicone clusters and 20 gauge silver wire to make my own eye pins to link the pearls and the clusters together. I also encased the pearls with some Bali silver […]
This necklace was made with two different sizes of purple resinbeads and strung on pink tiger tail. The resin pieces are quite bold and nothing like I have seen before.
These beautiful earrings are made with glass beads with a rose design and surrounded by Swarovskicrystals. Earwires are 14k gold plated. Measures 1 1/2″. These are the perfect accent to your spring wardrobe! So pretty and sparkly.
I have made this elegant piece with the method of finger weaving incorporating freshwater potato pearls, Japanese seedbeads and my focal lampworkbead. I was after a soft and feminine look which had a natural flow.
I have strung an old black floral button with a diamantee attached on to an antique silver style cable chain. Faceted black beads, Swarovskicrystals, pink licorice beads and another old button are mixed together to create this necklace. I tried to create a retro feel with this necklace by using beads that reminded me […]
I found the large silverwirependant 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 […]
I made these earrings using sterling silverfindings, chandelier components, and best of all, Swarovskicrystals and pearls. I love the shine and sparkle of the crystals. They are just beautiful. I was inspired thinking about a wedding with beautiful pink roses to match the earrings and set everything else off beautifully.
