Ivory Pod Earrings

My lampwork beads in this earring pair measures 15x10mm. They are made with a base of black and dotted with ivory and grey suckers. Each sucker is made by placing dots of molten glass around the bead and then poking each one in the middle with a sharp tool while hot. After they were annealed […]

Goldie’s Garden Bracelet

I often get requests for birthday bracelets. I use the stones that correspond to the birth month and the individuals astrological sign. This piece was inspired by my girlfriends mother “Goldie” who is a lovely, lively, bubbly and happy go lucky lady! I used 24 gauge silver wire to string smokey quartz beads and a […]

Rose Swarovski Necklace

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 Swarovski crystals and attached them to an 18 inch silver plated chain. I think they are a great combination!

Lillyana Bracelet

I have been making lampwork beads for a while and decided that this flower focal would look good with pearls. I used sterling silver findings and a hill tribe silver heart, just to add a bit more romance to it. It suited a double strand bracelet, due to the size of the bead.

Jasper Pendant Necklace

This necklace is made with a sage green jasper random faceted gemstone focal bead and finished with a couple of silver acrylic rounds mounted on silver plated wire. The ‘loops’ are created using foil lined green/grey seed beads mounted on clear nylon cord. It fastens in the back with a silver plated metal clasp and […]

Cancun Waters Bracelet

I used glass beads of delightful blues and greens and attached them to a sterling silver plated chain with square and round jump rings. I made the ‘S’ clasp from 16 gauge sterling silver wire. This piece is breezy and cool and remind me of the waters of Cancun Mexico, thus, the name!

Jade Long Heart Cluster

A large jasper pendant forms the focal point of this necklace. Added to this are topaz Czech faceted glass rounds, amber Czech glass rounds, faceted resin rondelles and some silver plated Bali-like beads caps and spacer beads to finish. The seed beads are foil lined dark brown and clear cream, the bugle beads are a […]

Flamingo Pink Beaded Bracelet Set

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 […]

Silver And Amethyst Cluster Cuff Bracelet

Lately I’ve really been enjoying making rustic or organic looking jewelry and I think this bracelet turned out great! The crystal is approximately 1 1/2″ (4cm) wide by 3/4″ (2cm) deep and 1″ (2.5cm) high, and sits on top of a fused and soldered sterling and fine sliver cuff.

Boot Bling

These anklet pieces are worn around your ankle over your boot. The dangles are made with headpins covered with liquid silver with a 4mm Swarovski Crystal at the end.

Pink Shell And Crystal Necklace

This piece was created around the pendant. I wrapped the large round pink shell with silver plated wire and threaded the little flower charms through the wire as I wrapped. Since the pendant was large, I went with a longer necklace, using clear crystals, pink jasper, and salmon glass beads with a metallic hue. The […]

Black and Silver Polymer Clay Flower Earrings

Each of these tiny flowers have been handmade one by one. I began with the dark black colour of polymer clay and added some white to have shades of gray from dark to light. I made some of the flowers with a shimmery polymer clay as well. I assembled the flowers with a silver ball […]

A Mothers Love Necklace

The inspiration for these piece is my mother who sadly passed away at the beginning of this year (2006). I utilized a puffed sterling silver heart as the focal to represent my love for mom. Swarovski crystals in ruby which is my mothers birthstone and the creamy beige pearls which were my mother’s which I […]

Shell Bracelet

Pamela Bruce wire-wrapped individual spiral-shaped shell pieces and burgundy-dyed freshwater pearls together with sterling silver wire to a sterling silver chain. What inspired her to create this bracelet is that she liked the way the shells looked, especially their color combination of browns, burgundies, pinks, beiges, and greens. She found the burgundy-dyed freshwater pearls to […]

Caribbean Sea

This necklace is made with a hand crafted polymer clay pendant in shades of turquoise and blue. (The focal bead is an artists designer bead and has been created in an artists studio in the U.S.A. The bead is totally unique and original, even more beautiful in real life. It’s 3.3cm x 2.5cm). The necklace […]

Farewell, Gabriel Bracelet

I’ve been experimenting with various styles of wirework. This bracelet is comprised of hand-coiled wire swirls, a handmade wire clasp, blue and red glass beads, and metal spacers. I made charms out of some of the red and blue beads, adding them to the wire swirl charms, and the result is a colorful mix of […]

Turquoise Mist Necklace

This necklace features 3 strands of silver glass seed beads that space a random pattern of turquoise briolettes, turquoise 4mm rounds, and quartz ovals. The clasp is a sterling silver toggle with delicate details. I was inspired by the briolettes when they were still on the strands that I bought them on and they were […]

Faceted Crystal And Pearls Necklace

This is a very simple piece. Faceted flat top tear drop clear crystals are teamed up here with tiny fresh water pearls wrapped in sterling silver. The chain and clasp are sterling silver. The ‘pendant’ focal was strung onto a 22gauge sterling silver wire and attached to the sterling silver chain with jump rings.

Pearls And Silver Rings Necklace

I combined small 6mm Swarovski pearls with large 10mm silver rings and medium silver chain to create this simple piece.

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 […]
