"Attention to detail, high-quality craftsmanship, and beautiful embellishments make each of her pieces a work of art."
Entirely self-taught, I've been making beaded jewelry in my home studio since 2004, specializing in complex beadweaving and bead embroidery.
In December 2009, I added polymer clay to my materials arsenal. Making jewelry using the millefiori, or caning, process is very exciting and fulfilling. I build colorful beads and jewelry which I sell here on Etsy, on my website, and at craft shows.
Years ago, an accident provided me an opportunity to explore the process of creating jewelry as works of art. From the early days of simply stringing beads together to make pretty patterns, to currently using polymer clay as a basis for spectacularly beaded wearable art, each day I spend in my studio is a joyful experience.
Around the same time, I discovered a fondness for blogging. Stop by and visit sometime - I love company!

I work in a smoke-free and cat-free home.
DISCLAIMER: I've tried hard to portray the colors of my jewelry and beads accurately. However, colors do vary on different monitors; please keep this in mind if you're interested in my pieces. Descriptions list lengths and sizes.
Please visit my other shop at BuyBeads.etsy.com where I sell beading supplies.
