My passion for beading began in 2005, and has steadily increased into an obsession! The more techniques I learn, the more my creativity is fueled. From the simple to the eccentric and everywhere in between, not a day goes by that I don't create - even if doodling a design, or playing with color combos.

Hands down: wire! I've been in love with bended wire since I started - though at that time my skills left alot to be desired. Over the past year, I decided to take a few tutorials, and purchase a book or two that helped expand my knowledge and skill by leaps & bounds. wire-wrapped rings will remain a favorite because of versatility, and freeform cuff bracelets are my newest love!

Everywhere. Jewelry stores. HSN. Seeing someone on the street. Textures. Colors. Nature...it depends on where my head is at in the moment, but it take very little for me to be inspired. My husband thinks I'm crazy because I'll get up out of the bed from sleeping to create if I'm so moved. It's in my blood...and I will honor the integrity of my passion at every turn.

Do YOU. Take a style, and make it your own...and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE! Some of my most memorable and conversation-worthy pieces are those that I thought looked like crap! *lol* Something that didn't execute quite the way I anticipated, but turned out to be a more "artsy" piece of jewelry. (Case in point: my wire-wrapped cuff bracelets. NONE of them turned out as expected...but it's a good thing!)

Wearing my first handmade necklace to dinner and someone asking me where I purchased it. When I told them I made it, they offered to buy it onthe spot!
