Honey Jade Earrings

Hanging on sterling silver ear hooks are large, faceted, pale yellow, honey jade rectangular stones measuring 11x17mm. The stones are strung on headpins which are attached to silver colored chain. The whole earring dangles about 2 1/2″ from top to bottom. They are simple but still elegant!

Crimson Rose Bracelet

This bracelet is comprised of round, crimson glass beads and ornate, silver metal bead caps. The central bead has different metal bead caps than the others, and is the only variation is this simple design. I finished it with an antique silver metal hook clasp, which keeps with the design of the bead caps. I […]

Pink Daisies Jump Ring Anklet

I created this piece a few months ago, but it was only half-finished. I knew I wanted to make an anklet from the daisy chainmail weave. It’s just so beautiful that I knew it would look great on an ankle. After using my 16 gauge sterling silver, I got the basic length of the anklet, […]

Wire and Button Necklace

I made this necklace and bracelet set using silver buttons and 18 gauge silver wire. I put one end of the wire through the hole of the button & formed it into a spiral. Then I bent it flat against the button. Then I made a spiral with the remaining wire. I repeated the process […]

Asymmetrical Blues Necklace

The vast majority of my pieces are symmetrical and I wanted to experiment with an asymmetrical design. The large pendants are turquoise dyed jasper and the smaller round beads are amazonite separated with small silver-plated spacers and wire wrapped glass turqoise beads. The final bead dangling from the very bottom is a large, ornate silver-plated […]

Tree Of Life Pendant

I started this piece by twisting many pieces of silver color wire together creating a stem shape. I took one set of ends and bended them in the shape of roots. I attached green stones on the other set of ends to create tree branches.

Classic Pearl Illusion Necklace

An illusion necklace is much easier than it looks! The cord, sold on some beading websites, is called invisible cord or illusion cord. It is also sold as fishing line and the technical name is monofilament. I’ve seen it in black and a translucent white, so this necklace can be made for light and darker skin […]

Breast Cancer Awareness Leather Wrap Bracelet

Black leather cord wonderfully frames these pink rhodochrosite and rhodonite gemstone beads. The clasp is a special pink ribbon lampwork bead in honor of breast cancer survivors. A few silver bali beads add visual interest.

Casual Salsa Necklace

I created this silver metal clay necklace to intentionally be charmy and have tons of movement when worn. I attached silver clay rings and random clusters of brown glass pearls and crystal beads to a sterling silver cable chain which I then anchored to a color-coordinated leather cord to make the necklace a little more […]

Mirror Mirror Fairest Of The All

This necklace is made using high polished silver chain and rubber coated satin red beads that I wire wrapped using silver hypo wire. I used silver jump rings to secure the beads onto the chain. I used a sivertone toggle clap as the closure for the necklace. The silver and red satin colored beads warms […]

Colorful And Fun Beaded Bracelet

This necklace is made with a variety of colorful Swarovski Austrian crystals, pink, orange and yellow fiber optic cat’s eye beads, a variety of faceted fire polished crystals, disc shaped glass beads and much more. I also added silver hearts and silver bead accents throughout. I made the bracelet adjustable so the length is 7 […]

Natacha Swarovski Crystal Bracelet

I created this bracelet using a simple bead weaving technique with the combination of Swarovski crystal beads in garnet, citrine, and peridot colors. I added gold metallic seed beads and white glass pearls for more vivid contrast, solidity, and depth. I used metal findings consisting of a sterling silver hook clasp, jumprings, and an extension […]

Blue Shell Earrings

These earrings are made of blue shell disc beads with a cluster of dangles attached on the end of silver chain. Each dangle consists of two faceted crystal beads on either side of a larger sparkly blue disco ball bead, thread onto a head pin. The dangles are attached to different parts of the chain […]

Oceans Of Malachite And Aventurine Necklace

In the heat of summer, I wanted to create an oasis of cool colors. I started with a silver, green, and blue pendant which I wrapped in green 20 gauge wire with a few silver spacers. I combined some of my grandmother’s large malachite beads with aventurine rounds, lapis lazuli chips, green seed beads, silver […]

Twisted Wire Turquoise Bracelet

I started with two pieces of 24 gauge silver plated wire and twisted them together. At various intervals I strung pearls and turquoise gemstones on one wire strand and twisted the other wire around them. I repeated this technique to create 5 strands, and then I tangled the strands together in a random way.

Bracelet Woven With Pearls

This is a cuff style bracelet that was woven with silver plated wire and white glass pearls. First, I created a 20 gauge wire frame. Next, I wove in 3 sizes of glass pearls to create an impression of texture. A hook and eye closure finishes the piece. The look is gorgeous and opulent.

Joyeux Noel Christmas Tree Beaded Earrings

I started this earring by placing a Swarovski 4 mm Siam cube crystal on a head pin. I then placed a 6 mm Swarovski Margarita bead, then 8 mm crystal, then 10 mm crystal, and finished it with a 6mm brown bicone bead to complete the Christmas tree shape. I attached the head pin to […]

Silver Collar

This collar is formed by the collar itself and a pendant made with several circles. Each part is shaped from silver wire on which are wrapped blue crystal in silver wire net. I think this would work well with an elegant party dress.

Amethyst Chip Three-Strand Necklace

This piece began as a large bag of amethyst tumbled chips which needed to be used up. I had plenty of fishing line, three-tier spacer bars and a normal clasp so I played around to see what I could come up with. My design was based on inspiration from my mother as her birthstone is […]
