Earrings, bracelets, necklaces ... I love to make them all. Swarovski crystal beads bring sparkling colors and visual texture to my jewelry designs. Czech Republic glass beads offer rich deep colors, with individual 2-tone Czech beads often possessing unique color shading within the clear glass of the bead. For warm colors, I like to make bracelets from the natural beauty of obsidian and jasper beads.



Colors in these dangles remind me of a candy cane.

On a spring day turned cold, I grabbed a seldom used green and purple v-neck sweater out of the closet. I wanted earrings to accent the sweater, so I made these ones up quickly. To pick up a slender white pattern running through this sweater I used silver accent and crystal clear round Swarovski beads.
