Family Emergency -- shop will re-open on Feb. 4, 2012.
Thank you for dropping by! Please return on Feb. 4th :o)
Just returned from some jewelry fabrication classes and am perfecting some fabulous new techniques! I have some additional work to do over the next 6 weeks, so am not sure whether I'll get many new items made before January. I do have a bit of a backlog of great pieces just waiting to be photographed -- hope to get hubby to help out with that!
About me:
I love to be outside but it rains a lot of the time here in the Pacific NW. Sooo, when indoors I like to surround myself with beautiful colors and interesting textures -- in lots of pretty glass beads, semi-precious gemstones, crystals, geodes, cabochons, fresh water pearls, fusing glass, polymer clay and silver, copper and gold jewelry components.
My designs are often infused with elements inspired by nature or by a unique focal component that I've found. I recently invested in a kiln and some bead making equipment but until I master the new techniques necessary to make my own fabulous focal beads and pendants, I will continue to use elements made by folks who are already superior bead artists. I am always on the prowl for gorgeous lampwork, cane glass and furnace glass beads and pendants by these experts.
I do make some of my own silver, fused glass and polymer clay components. I have also recently mastered some new bead stitching / bead weaving techniques. I have expanded my supply of tiny little seed beads (10-16 beads per inch!) and have been loving the hand stitched cuff bracelets, braided strands, and earrings that I've been making -- I think you will too!
I stand behind each piece of jewelry I make: Each and every piece of jewelry I sell is one of a kind, handmade, with love, by me <3
I want you to love these treasures as much as I do. If you are unhappy with a purchase for any reason, just return it in original condition within 10 days and I will refund the entire purchase price.
I also love new challenges -- If you have a vision for a piece you would like, or would like something similar to an item I have listed (in different color, metal, size, etc.), please convo me: I would love to design something just for you so you may put your own personal style into a handmade piece of jewelry.
Thank you for stopping by -- and God bless!
