I've been neglecting my blog

Happy Memorial Day Weekend all! I've been neglecting my blog because I've been so busy! I've had a really great last two weeks! I was featured in a couple really well put together treasuries. I was also featured on Talent Database's Craft Portal. My biggest accomplishment this week was having Fire Mountain Gems add me to their Notable Artist page. I also completed two and half bracelets; one for my mom's birthday which was made out of size 15/0 emerald Toho beads. I also finally finish my Mardi Gras bracelet which has left me with a sad feeling. I made my Mardi Gras bracelet out of size 11/0 Galvanized Tangerine, Galvanized Hot Pink and Galvanized Light Teal Delicas. I was so excited about this bracelet from the planning to the first bead strung to the final bead.
I just finished Mardi Gras bracelet yesterday. This is the bracelet that I made my mom for her birthday.
Fire Mountain Gem featured me and my Stain Glass Cuff.

New Pieces

These two peices were listed last week. I just couldn’t figure out how to get pictures in my blog. Thanks to Bendawndavis (http://bendawndavis.etsy.com) I finally figured it out! Please visit her shop she has beautiful things!


Okay here are a couple of my new pieces:

Stain Glass Cuff







Stain Glass Cuff is a combination of 11/0 Toho Beads and 11/0 Mill Hill beads. This is my first design and I’m very excited to see what else I’ll make from it!

My other new piece is Wacky Wood.




Wacky Wood is just a great natural braclet that compliments every outfit. This is the first bracelet that I’ve made that I have attachment to lol.

Let me know what you think!

What's been going on

Recently Macnider Art Museum asked me if I would be interested in selling some of my jewelry in their gift shop. This is a great honor for me and I dug in right away to make pieces for the shop. In June I will be in their art festival. I have a great deal of work a head of me.
I have completed some new pieces too.
I call this one Coal Shimmer. It was hand woven out of 3mm black cube beads and black Nymo. It is on sale at http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10520741








When I started to create the bracelet to the right it reminded me of my mother in law, Wendy. It is my take on RAW. I loved this bracelet so much that I did one in blue too. You can find this bracelet on sale at http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=10520171
