New Bracelet!!

I found another gorgeous bracelet that I made last night.  This uses a right angle stitch with glass pearls and Swarovski crystals, and can be made in a rainbow of colors!  Getting ready to create a few others with pretty spring time colors, just in time for Mother's Day!!

Loading up Pixs!

I'm working to get as many pictures of  jewelry pieces on the new website as I can.  It's a slow process, but hopefully it will be completed before the month end.  If you're looking for something in particular, please contact me!  I have a huge selection of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and pendants.  From chunky Turquoise and coral, to sophisticated pearls and crystals.  

Love me a Bracelet

  These are the latest  bracelets that I've finished using various sizes and colors of seed beads and Swarovski crystals.  The crystals really sparkle and catch your eye when the bracelets are on the wrist, they look spectacular!   Although the time to make each bracelet is somewhat lengthy, it is well worth the work!  They will run somewhere between $50 to $65 dollars with the lengthier work time.  

Seed Bead Craze

My newest found passion.........seed beads.  I've always used them as fillers and spacers, but since learning a few beading patterns, I've started working more and more on jewelry pieces with the focus on seed beads.   A few pieces have been posted in the Bracelet gallery and more to come!   The beauty of using seeds is they are so versatile and the number of color combinations is endless!
