Life changes...

Been sick for two weeks and am facing the fact that I must move soon and pack up all my beads...actually they're packed already, tried to be organized about it, but don't have the energy right now to dig through containers and create anything, am trying to look forward to my future 'studio', wherever that may be...

New HOT Ring!

I created this ring by slicing a felt ball, sewing tiny glass seed beads on it & gluing into an adjustable metal ring-HOT!

Antique Book Pendant

Using pages from an 1834 Penny Magazine book, I construct a pendant by sandwiching a 1 x 1 inch piece of the magazine (actually a book) between glass, then soldering and adding a sterling silver loop that will work with a chain or neckwire. Each pendant is unique as these are NOT scans, but pieces of history...
