I am so happy I found this seller. The bracelet is beautiful and exactly what I wanted for the upcoming holidays! It came quickly and the seller let me know when it was shipped out. Excellent customer service and beautiful jewelry!

These earrings are so pretty! I have a few other pieces from this seller and everything is so lovely from the clasps to the beadwork. Love her jewelry!

The necklace that I purchased wasn't exactly what I was looking for, and Kathy was very kind about allowing me to return it. Great customer service!

Getting published in several magazines marks the realization of a dream for me. ("Red Poppy" is #3)

I realized that I needed a creative outlet and that I could learn to make jewelry!

I decided in one quick decision that I wanted to learn how to make jewelry and sell it too! I set out on this venture in making jewelry in 2006. I took a class at our local Michaels store, then taught myself the rest. I have been designing and making jewelry ever since.

With the exception of bookkeeping, I love every aspect of making jewelry. I am mostly inspired by the true colors we find in nature, especially the cool color combinations that occur naturally. I am the sole worker in my studio. I do it all!

My work has been published in various issues of Stringing Magazine and Bead Style Magazine.
