Jade Square Donut Pendant Necklace

When it comes to jewelry, not all donuts are round…this yellow jade pendant is combined with amazonite and ceramic beads on waxed linen cord. The cord is loosely braided and knotted and finished with cord tips and a sterling silver toggle clasp.

Black Oil Necklace

This necklace consists of Swarovski crystals and pearls, Czech glass and very unique focal beads. Tiger tail wire was used to string the beads. I have also used antique gold bead caps to accentuate some of the glass beads. The necklace has an antique gold J clasp with a baroque style. The Swarovski crystal colors […]

Turquoise and Aqua Necklace

This 2 strand bead necklace weaves in and out of itself. It is strung with turquoise and aqua seed beads with metallic bronze and pressed glass beads.

Southwestern Three Strand Necklace

This is a 19 inch 3 strand necklace with sodalite beads and brickstone beads with silver spacers. The contrast between the two colors is stark, which I think is part of the appeal. I was aiming for a southwestern look when I designed it, with the silver, reddish-brown, and blue combination. Because the colors are […]

Zoe Beaded Necklace

Using 3 Swarovski square crystals, and Toho & Miyuki seed beads, this necklace is made with five beadweaving stitches and a lot of patience! The necklace part is Russian Spiral, while the pendant is beaded crystals and Russian leaves. The fastening is a peyote toggle & loop. I have made this in three colours, but […]

Brass Circles Necklace

This has been a work in progress for a while – the links and pendant were a natural pairing – the strung portion took a while of thinking to find the right solution. The circles are brushed aged brass, and the transparent pendant bead and matching nugget beads are raku glass. The strung portion is […]

Sunset Crocheted Wire Necklace

This necklace was crocheted with 26 gauge colored copper wire and dyed glass chips. I love color and that is always my inspiration.

Cool Blues Necklace

I started with cool blue lampwork glass beads with foil detail stripes and added blue lampwork glass cubes to accompany them. The sequence is suspended from a double cotton thong and completed with a silver plated toggle clasp. I live a short ride from the North Sea and this was the inspiration for this piece–the […]

Fernwood Forest Heart Leaf Gemstone Necklace

This beaded necklace is made up of green garnet lentil gemstones, oval-shaped wood beads, sterling silver beads and sterling Bali spacers. I added a Karen Hill Tribe heart-shaped leaf pendant and used a sterling silver clasp and chain to allow it to be adjustable. I was inspired by the lush green trees found in the […]

Pink Lemonade With Mint Necklace

This was my very first attempt at hand knotting beads. I was so nervous but had to try it. I loved the beautiful contrast that the color salmon has against turquoise. So, with this piece, I hand knotted polished round volcano cherry quartz agate & a stabilized oval turquoise bead on white nylon/silk thread for […]

Pearly Blue Mandala Pendant

This necklace contains Swarovski crystal and pearls, silver beads, and non-tarnish silver artistic wire.

Crystal Floral Beaded Necklace

This beaded necklace was designed with smoked topaz (brown) Swarovski crystals, brown fossil beads, sterling silver beads, and copper/brown glass seed beads. The large floral pendant gives this necklace a subtle hint of vintage flare. It holds six large topaz rhinestones centered in each individual flower. Matching Swarovski crystals dangle off the end for a […]

Green & Beige Hearts & Vines Necklace

This necklace is made with a hand crafted heart shaped lampwork glass bead (crafted in an artists studio in the UK, 2cm x 1.8cm) in shades of light and dark green, beige, cream and brown, some Czech clear green glass beads, some beige cats-eye hearts and some silver plated solid metal Bali-like beads to finish. […]

Coral Blues Necklace

The inspiration for this piece comes from the coral reefs, which to me is a beautiful harmonious blend of colour. I used American turquoise and pink salmon semi-precious beads for this necklace. For the centrepiece, individual beads were suspended on hand-made sterling silver head pins which were then strung unto beading wire. To finish off […]

Treasure Box Necklace Set

The inspiration for this set was the antique gold finish filigree pieces that seem to have a charm all their own. I connected the filigree pieces with jump rings, strung deep red, small glass disks, garnet and lime Swarovski crystals onto olive colored beading wire, and repeated the process to add more filigree pieces and […]

The Winning Heart Necklace

When Rick wanted to add few hearts in this necklace for his wife’s birthday, I thought that his hearts will disappear in the blue ocean with sea creatures but one big heart could be a winner. I created this three-in-one using my own beads that were made from Effetre, recycled glass and sea creature charms […]

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. I wire wrapped the opaque indigo glass lampwork beads and combined them with a steel textured oval chain, metallic seed beads, a textured porcelain pendant, and a hook closure.

The Krishna Indian Deity Necklace

My love for all things royal and majestic is never ending. When I receive a handmade pendant, something just runs through me and the feeling is heightened even more when I find the complimenting beads to uplift the pendant. The Krishna necklace is constructed on softflex wire for flexibility. I wanted something that would add […]

Vintage Treasures Necklace

This necklace is one of a kind. It reminds me of something you would find in a treasure box. The large beads are all vintage. The necklace also contains glass pearls in almond and black, copper Czech glass beads, snowflake obsidian, hematite, and textured circles. I put each individual bead on wire and linked them […]

Antiqued Copper Pearl Necklace

This necklace was designed with 7-8mm antiqued golden copper freshwater cultured pearls. I separated each pearl with small clear glass seed beads. Chrysolite Swarovski Austrian crystals and sterling silver beads are also used to design this necklace. The large pendant measures 2″x2″ and features colors of frosted amber/copper with hints of green. I finished this […]
