GracefulWraps

For the first time in many years, due to the rising cost of silver, I have had to raise the price on all of my sterling silver pieces. I hope you understand. I have been making more pendants in patinaed copper. I will still take custom orders with payment upfront.

Each piece of jewelry is individually handcrafted by me. I make and ship everything in the United States. Though there are sometimes several pieces of the same design, each piece is different, as the stones are always unique and there are always variations in any particular design. You are not just buying jewelry you are buying a work of art. If you like my work please come see me, and become a fan of graceful wraps on facebook.

Wire wrapped jewelry is an ancient craft dating back thousands of years. It is created entirely by twisting and forming individual wires and wire findings. No soldering, heating or gluing is used in a traditional wire wrap. Though there are a few basic techniques involved, each wire artist develops his or her own flare and unique style. Styles range from very simple to very complex.

While there are many types of wire, I work exclusively with copper or sterling, and fine silver wire. I spend many hours at gem and trade shows shopping for rare and unique stones. I am constantly inspired by these natural formations. Some stones are in their raw form, some are cut and polished and some are beads. Each holds its own unique beauty

If a particular design speaks to you, yet you would like it made with different stones, just send me a message with specifics and I will be happy to custom make a piece to suit your individual taste. Custom orders are welcomed.

Each handmade textile item is also unique, I never create two that are identical. All my work is created in a smoke free environment. I have a dog. For that reason I wash all textile items with a gentle detergent after they are made.

Prints of my paintings are all printed on high quality archival photo paper using archival ink.

Because I am a multimedia artist, I am always thinking of new ways to create, New ideas to work with, and new products to list. I think the versatility is one of the things I like the most about being an artist.

I believe everything I create art, jewelry, poultices or paintings, each carry a piece of my medicine. spiritual medicine which I have cultivated and practiced throughout my lifetime as a Reiki master, shamanic practitioner, and seeker. that energetic medicine is passed from me to you through each interaction and exchange.
