Dragonfly Necklace and Earrings

Both pieces are made of dark blue and silver beads, and the necklace includes a blue and pink dragonfly pendant. I strung the dragonfly first, then strung the first few beads on both strands. I then separated the strands and continued beading. The toggle clasps were added and the ends of the monofilament were secured […]

Longevity Jade Pendant Necklace & Earrings

I was inspired by the “longevity symbol” jade pendant bead and added accent silver chain links and purple crystal beads to drape from the pendant piece to create a contemporary feel. Then I used beading wire and threaded rectangular sunstone beads, marble, tumbled green aventurine stones and sterling silver accent bead caps to create this […]

Lemon Jade Necklace

This necklace is made with a yellow lemon jade gemstone set in one of my silver beadrings. It is connected to other unique patterned silver links. On the other side is a silver spiral linked to an antique silver flower patterned round link attaching to the focal. The focal is a twisted silver circle with […]

Beaded Watch Strap

This is a cute red beaded watch strap made out of elongated and clove shaped red beads and silver round beads. I have attached lobster hooks at both the ends so that I can reuse my watch with other straps.

Amazonite And Spiral Necklace

When I found this Amazonite, I noticed how beautiful it looked against sterling silver. I was inspired to make this necklace because I wanted to find a way to make this unusual blue really stand out. The sterling silver spiral was the final touch, adding a little depth and character to the necklace.

Tropical Nights Necklace and Earrings

20″ Necklace featuring Black Kukui Nuts and Black Onyx. Each Kukui nut is the shape of a heart. This unique necklace includes a huge onyx octagon charm and pewter spacer beads. Silver plated lobster claw clasp. Wear this set and prepare to be treated like royalty!

Wild Orchid Necklace Set

This necklace and earrings set consists of sterling silver findings, carnelian beads, and rose quartz chips. The centerpiece of the necklace is a carved carnelian rose.

Shell And Amethyst Necklace In Blue and Purple

I made this necklace on only one metal string from purple, blue and sea-green shell beads, amethyst beads and glass beads. It was finished with a nice Tibetan silver toggle clasp and 2 shrink beads. I especially like the combination of the square and round forms and the bright colors which remind me of sea […]

Fall Cluster Statement Necklace

With most of my work this season I have come to the realization that I am in a ‘bigger is better’ frame of mind. I am leaning more towards chunky statement type pieces. Also, I find I enjoy mixing gold and silver a lot and this piece reflects that. I began with only an inkling […]

Byzantine Chain Mail Bracelet

This bracelet was constructed using a variation of the byzantine chain mail weave. Instructions for this weave and many others can be found here. Materials used include: aluminum rings, freshwater pearls, sterling silver wire, and sterling silver toggle clasp.

Amethyst Embelished Bracelet

I created this bracelet using square stitch, flat black cubes embelished with amethyst seed beads and silver spiral spacers. The total length of this bracelet is 8″. The clasp is a dark button that matches with the seed beads.

Three-strand necklace with stone pendant

The strands consist of copper-tone and magenta seed beads, turquoise beads, silver spacers, E-beads, and my favorite green triangular beads. I approached this necklace like I sometimes approach a quilt project–what “scraps” do I have sitting around?

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 […]

Triple Fantasy Necklace

This multi-strand piece is one of my favorites. After adding the black, brown and natural beads together it ended up being a triple. I really think the silver spacers and the inside chain set this piece off to be a great necklace. That is my opinion of course!

Imagination Facination Bracelet

This bracelet is an African opal bracelet with Czech crystal bi-cone flirts. How to make it: Cut two pieces of leather cord about 1 1/2″ shorter than you want it to be to allow for the focal bead and the clasp. I used a heavier 20 gauge half hard sterling silver wire, and did a […]

Asymmetrical Silver Bracelet

I made this bracelet with a wealth of silver elements, some of which were made by me. I have added a unique half aqua and half silver glass rectangular connector. There is also a charm made with an aqua tiger’s eye stone, and the same stone can be found in a silver beadring near the […]

Peaches And Fairy Floss Bracelet

This piece is made of pink AB bicone glass crystal clusters and peach coloured 10mm glass pearls. I used 28 gauge silver wire 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 […]

Pearl & Tigers Eye Necklace And Earring Set

I purchased this gorgeous pendant from an online auction, but didn’t like the pendant bail that came with it. It was too large. I cut it off and used industrial strength glue to attach a tiger’s eye bead to the pendant and used it as an attachment point for the necklace. I then strung matching […]

Hanukkah Bracelet

This 8″ bracelet is done with silver stardust beads, blue cat’s eye, white glass pearls and aurora borealis crystal beads. It has a pewter Star of David charm hanging at the clasp.

Amber Waves Bracelet

This 5 1/2″ stretch bracelet will fit most children (although I do not recommend it for children under the age of 5 years) or a small adult wrist. It is double standed with stretch cord and made with antiqued silver Swarovski amber charms, glass amber and gold seed beads, clear round glass beads with amber/gold […]
