Rose Quartz



Rose quartz is associated with love. These large coin shaped pieces of rose quartz, and the large round, textured, and oxidized silver beads and silver toggle combines to create quite a hunk of love.

Heart's Companion



These beautiful little garnet and silver bead earrings are the complimentary touch for the heart necklace. The ear wires used are silver leverbacks.

The Heart



Attached to a strand of longish, brushed, silver beads with a touch of red garnet in between them is a simple silver heart, topped off with a silver toggle.

Frosted Aqua!



Frosted softly aqua looking beads delicately connected with lovely silver chain and silver toggle. The color of this frosted aqua ensamble conveys a surprisingly soft yet refreshing feel.

Ocean Jasper



This necklace is made of beautiful ocean jasper beads,silver spacers, and a silver toggle. So many different colors make up these beads, totally taking your imagination under the sea...

Been away!!!!

Haven't been here for a long time but the creating of jewelry continues... I'm posting a couple more pieces...

My Fans


I am enclosing a photo of 2 of my biggest fans... The third was unable to be photographed and this photo will be updated at a later date...

Shiva Shell Necklace



This beautiful necklace is a combination of shiva shells and thai silver beads... Both of these components really compliment each other giving this piece a very natural feel... Both the shells and the thai silver come from the same part of the world and I think this duo looks great...

Crazy Trio



This piece is made with a pendant that is amethyst, citrine, and garnet... I put the same 3 different stones in the necklace piece... I believe this crazy trio of a combination looks great...

Shiva Bracelet




This lovely bracelet is made of shiva shells and thai silver... This bracelet was made to compliment the other shiva shell pieces...

Been Away!!

I've not been blogging for awhile... Getting things done, traveling to see my Mom in Wisconsin, making more jewelry, and just doing life... Now that I've stopped in I want to show you some more of the pieces of jewelry that I've made...

Weddings and Personal Pieces

One thing I feel I should mention is the fact that I do custom jewelry for weddings. I also make custom pieces of jewelry for individuals or gifts they want to give for different occasions.

Abalone and Rose Quartz Earrings



























These abalone and rose quartz earring were made to compliment the abalone and rose quartz necklace that was posted first on this blog. I think the rose quartz makes the colors in the abalone just pop out at you...

Confetti





























This little necklace is one of a type of necklace that I call my confetti necklaces. I like the different stones separated by the small space giving it a light feel. These pieces are perfect for either dressing up or being casual in your jeans.

Isis





























This lovely piece has beads of lapis lazuli and carnelian. The pendant is silver and it is an image of the goddess Isis. Both stones are considered to be associated with ancient rulers. Egyptians carried carnelian on their person as a source of energy and constant renewal of vitality. Lapis was wore by rulers for its protective properties and in Egypt it was ground up and used as eye adornment.

more examples





























After working on things the past couple of days I was thinking I should add a few more examples of my work.

The first example today is of an agate necklace. The beads making up this neclace are highly polished and if you'll notice the tear drop pendant piece of agate has more of a rough finish to it.
The story behind this stone is that it is said to be found in formerly volcanic areas.

Preview of some new pieces

Here's an example of one of my abalone pieces. In this piece the abalone is combined with rose quartz.

The second necklace is made of unakite and silver beads.

The last necklace we have lovely shades of purple ... These beautiful beads are amethyst spaced with silver and the delicate faceted pendant is a stone called ametrine.










Here We Go!

I'm up and on the web (finally :) and ready to showcase all my new and favorite custom pieces!
