Love Twists & Locks

This is a two in one piece necklace, with a diachromatic coloring pink and wine at the base. I used the wine color against the white to signify love and passion and the up and down nature of love. On the other side I used pink to signify the purity and gentleness that comes with […]

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.

Kon Tiki Double-Stranded Bracelet

I love texture in the pieces I make – I wanted to use these wonderfully shaped freshwater pearls and I felt the shells complemented the color and texture of the pearls perfectly. I used a large leaf-shaped bronze colored toggle clasp, which fits the design of the piece. A summery, beachy, boho bracelet – overall, I […]

Flower Labradorite Leaves Bracelet

My inspiration for this bracelet is the beautiful leaf-cut labradorite. This piece is so classy and can be worn to dress up jeans or to a formal event! The leaf-cut labradorite stones have a lot of beautiful blue flash with black faceted Swarovski crystal spacers and faux grey pearls. Strung on beading wire, measures about […]

Maile Leaf With Fresh Water Pearls And Green Glass Leaves

The pendant was the inspiration for this piece. It’s a Hawaiian Maile leaf (from my home state), dipped in gold. My husband wore a fragrant Maile leaf lei in our wedding, so Maile leaves have sentimental value for me. The rest of the necklace is comprised of green glass leaves, and other green glass beads […]

Seahorse Beaded Necklace

This necklace was inspired by my love of the ocean. Abalone shell pendant with small brass seahorse charm adorns the front. I also used various colored fresh water pearls, and Czech glass beads and then metallic blue/purple seed beads up and around the back of the necklace where it ends at a brass swirl clasp.

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 […]

Blue Quartz And Blue Opal Multistrand Necklace

For this 3-strand necklace I started with the faceted oval 10x14mm blue opal stones and added cube-shaped blue opals with light turquoise and darker foiled turquoise colored seed beads. The three strands are 18 1/2″, 20 1/2″ and 21″ in length (including the clasp). The clasp is a metal 3-strand hook with little flowers for […]

The first strand has tiger’s eye stones and picture jasper beads with the second strand of gold colored seed beads wrapped around the picture jasper beads. Brown glass and copper-tinted spacers are mixed in with the other beads to complete the piece. All […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Pretty In Pink Strawberry Quartz Pendant Necklace

Created with rose quartz, pink czech glass, pink and gold lampwork, crystal, gold and a stunning circular strawberry quartz pendant. The necklace measures 16 and one half inches and the pendant is 1 and one half inches in diameter. I used a gold toggle clasp to finish it.

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 […]

Tropical Rain Forest Necklace

This piece was inspired by the tropical rainforests I have visited in Central America. The dark green leaves, dark undergrowth and sparkling sun breaking through the trees is depicted in this piece. It is made of malachite, obsidian and silver and finished with a toggle clasp.

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 […]

Purple Ice Crackle Beads Triple Strand Necklace

This necklace is a combination of wire wrapping and bead stringing techniques. You can create the three strands of purple beads by stringing them onto either soft-flex wire or thread and finish with bead tips. The ends of the strands are connected with jump rings to the large hammered metal rings. On the other side […]

Triple Strand Pearl Choker

This necklace is made from 5mm freshwater peacock pearls. They are spaced with sterling bali bars and finished with a decorative sterling clasp. This necklace is fourteen inches long and designed to be worn close to the neck, as a choker.

Red Aventurine Necklace

This necklace is quite a stunning piece! It is strung with red aventurine rectangle beads, large sage green freshwater pearls and mocha Swarovski crystals. Silver daisy spacers add a nice accent. I started with the aventurine and added the pearls and crystals in colors that would give a fall themed look.
