Brushed Gold Vermeil and Sterling silver Necklace



I just love these beads. They are brushed to give it texture and added sparkle. It looks stunning on.

How it all Started

I started making jewelry about 1997. I went into this store called country beads, bought some supplies - found out it was expensive to make your own jewelry because of all the supplies, but I was hooked. I kept going back and asked the sales woman there how to do things. They took the time to show me and off I went.
I realized after university that that love to be creative. It feeds my soul to create. Even more so, I enjoy someone putting on a piece of my jewelry and see the person feel good wearing what they love. My background training is Counselling, so I love how the natural gemstones have healing properties that will help the wearer.
It is like stepping into a candy shop when I go to buy new gemstones.

Coral & Turquoise Embrace


I was given these Authentic Red coral Beads and Large Turquoise beads to create a custom order.  The beads were inherited by my client from his father. They were collected during his fathers travels long ago.  He is ordered this necklace for his sister. They are very large beads. It is absolutely stunning on with the Three large turquoise pendants. It turned out well. The large black rondelles fit perfectly next to the Red Coral.  The Red coral is smooth and feels nice around your neck. A definite statement piece.
