I started out as my mothers apprentice in jewelry design over 20 years ago and absolutely love all kinds of beads, textures and colors. I'm like a kid in a candy shop when I go bead hunting! I started making cards for myself 18 years ago using stamps and heat embossed ink. It was fun but I wanted more. I needed the jewelry to have a backdrop fitting the style and spirit of the beads themselves, so I started making images on the "primitive" computer programs back then. Wasn't easy, but It still wasn't quite right yet. Now I have perfected my design style and created images that appeal to my spirit and heart❤. I Love designing jewelry cards, mandalas and other items to help you, the wonderful customer, create that perfect backdrop for your own jewelry designs.
I still travel around doing art and craft shows all year like the gypsy artist I am, but it's not work when you love what you do, right? This is play time for me and I play wholeheartedly with everything I do. It's a passion that won't be quieted.
Enjoy browsing in my shop and if there is anything you need that you don't see, just ask me. I'm always ready to help you.
