For the drop there is a large oval gemstone with small bicone Swarovski crystals on a long headpin. Attached by a small jump ring is a 4mm round gemstone and attached at the bottom is a large Swarovski crystal. The necklace has a pattern of small bicone crystal, 4mm round gemstone, Bali tube spacer, gemstone […]

Mountain Mist Necklace

I love being able to use up leftover beads to create a beautiful eclectic piece. I used gold beading wire to string green agate chips, green glass beads of different shapes and sizes, clear Swarovski bicones, and green metallic seed beads. This is one of my favorite brass clasps, so I had to have it […]

Autumn Spirit Necklace

This was made with recycled vintage materials including vintage glass beads, vintage brass beads, and a focal bead made from a vintage earring. I played with the rhythm on this piece, varying the bead positions. My inspiration was the fall season and all its glory. Recycling vintage materials is a wonderful way to be kind […]

A Marriage In Purple

Purple is one of my husband’s favorite colors and animal print is one my weaknesses. So accidentally dropping a dyed hammer-shell bead next to a piece of purple leather in my workroom made me think the two were meant to marry! I accented zebra print shells, mother-of-pearl nugget shells and hand-cut leather with multi-shaped black […]

Scorpion Necklace

For this necklace I used a cabochon with a real scorpion within. I made the combination with shell pieces, bone beads, miyuki seed beads and beautiful filigree beads. The combination of the different materials and the copper and cream colors give this necklace a friendly instead of a scary look.

Victorian Queen Wedding Set

This is a necklace and hair piece I designed for my sons wedding. It has become the piece that has made me “stand out” in the crowd. It was created using Swarovski crystal, pearls, and natural stones such as chrysanthemum and red agate. The day of the wedding I went to a high end salon […]

Spiral Tourquiose Necklace Set

The necklace has a pewter spiral pendant and pewter bead caps bookending 12mm tourquiose beads. Between the large beads are 3 4mm beads separated with flat spacers. One large bead and a cone ends the necklace. The bracelet continues the pattern. Both the bracelet and necklace use a bar and toggle clasp.

Ring Of Fire Necklace

This necklace was a challenge to make! I wanted to incorporate strands of cord in with the beads and was unsure how to fasten them all together neatly. I ended up using a 26 gauge wire to bind the cords together, then I stitched seed beads over the wire with thread so the wire wouldn’t […]

Flowering Green Pagoda Pendant

In my exploration with the application of the needle lace technique to wire work, I created this lovely pendant. It reminded me of the Japanese Pagodas, hence the name. Created with 20 gauge wire as the base element and 26 gauge sterling wire for the netting. Swarovski crystals were used on the ends of the […]

Pearl Spear Necklace

A chain and wire-strand necklace with a hammered steel toggle clasp. Made with sodalite beads and pendant, small Swarovski bicone crystals, and mother-of-pearl spears. Simply attach the tigertail wire to one end of a bit of chain, string your beads, and then connect the wire to the other side of the chain! All materials used […]

Purple Donut Lariat Necklace

This necklace is made with Beadalon stringing wire, seed beads, wood pieces, glass and cat’s eye. It features a medium size purple glass donut as the centerpiece and the end. I was inspired to make this piece because of a beautiful purple flower I saw at Butterfly World. I wanted to make the two sides […]

Blue Agate And Labradorite Necklace

My inspiration for this necklace were these large 12x18mm blue agate beads. They are like a cool faceted barrel. I wanted the blue to stand out so I added the leaf-cut labradorite beads with the blue flash to match the blue in the agate. In between each labradorite are 2 glass beads and a clear […]

Splatter Wirework Necklace

This necklace was made from 18 gauge copper wire. I randomly shaped the wire into a design I liked. I added a few copper beads to the wire. I then hammered the copper in a few places, mostly on the curves, to add character. I finished the piece by attaching it to leather cord.

Snails Wire Wrapped Jewelry Set

Bracelet, earrings and necklace were made of silver plated wire, twisting around a wire with beads. This piece reminds me snails, therefore I called it so. 🙂

Nesting Bird Necklace

I created this necklace using Vintaj Brass Co. chain. In a few spots around the chain, I attached wire-wrapped red Czech glass beads for accents. The focal I used is a pewter bird bead from Mamacita Beadworks. I used an eye pin, and off the bottom hook, dangled a brass wire nest that I stuffed […]

Dance With Beads Bib Necklace

I embroidered on canvas with seed beads, bugle beads, and various sizes of glass beads in complementary earth tones. I then lined the canvas with leather.

Spirit Yeah I Have It

I bought this antique key from an antique seller last summer. I finally got the nerve to use it. I attached some dangles of wire-wrapped beads and a SPIRIT charm from Earthenwood Studios, to the handle. The chain is made up of Green jade rectangular tube beads, that are each wire looped to each other […]

Graphic Feldspar And Smokey Quartz Necklace

I found this beautiful triangular piece of graphic feldspar and thought I would make a great showpiece. I wrapped the parameter of the stone in sterling silver wire to showcase the interesting detail of the stone. To enhance its unique range of brown tones, I paired it with high quality faceted smokey quartz and lustrous […]

Black And Red Sixties Choker

This choker is made of red coral rondelle beads and big black square onyx donut beads. All from China. I made this choker on just one metal thread and finished it off with a Tibetan silver toggle clasp. This necklace reminds me of the sixties and I really like the bright red of the coral […]

Ice Princess Quartz Necklace

I’m usually an avid fan of mixing contrasting colours and creating funky creations; however, when I was working on this choker I decided to experiment with one uniform colour with a dash of soberness and chic. I blending together white cracked crystals with rose quartz stones and coordinated chips. The choker has four strands and […]
