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.

The artist calls this line “Cluster Charm Bangles”.

Copper Green Banded Bracelet

This bracelet features my own handmade lampwork beads, sterling silver, and fluted Czech glass beads. I made the beads by creating a round ivory colored base, added a copper green stripe, then a black stripe. The beads were annealed in a kiln and then cleaned. Finally I soaked the beads in an acid etching solution […]

Primitive Treasure Necklace

Malachite Glass Necklace

This necklace was made of lampworked beads by Mimi from Mimi Art Glass. She creates many styles of jewelry, inluding some remarkable lampworked beads.

Chunky Glass Necklace

I’ve created this necklace using 20mm gold and red gold and red glass silver foil lampwork rectangle beads. A large 25mm by 25mm sterling silver heart dangles as a focal point on this necklace.

Bluesy Lampwork Pendant

These lampwork beads were the first in my series of two-two beads featuring an opaque half and a transparent half of the same color.

Diamond Drop Choker

Three different sizes of glass bicone beads are used, along with gold wire. I also substitute 6mm round or oblong lampwork beads for the center piece on the diamond. This is a fun piece to make and looks great with every outfit, from jeans to formal gowns.
