Beading Addict:

Beads, beads everywhere my life is so complete

Just to see what I can make - I think it is so sweet!

A few more of my creations -

Mystic Green -

Purple Catseye -

Mossy -

Wooden Dream -

Coral Delight -


It is my passion and desire to create an item to please the eye of someone I am making a piece for. This is the utmost important reason I bead; to see

the pleasure on someones' face when they receive an item from me. That is my satisfaction, my high!

~Fly, Fly Butterfly~

A beautiful butterfly on my bush

Gracefully feeding off the flowers

This beautiful butterfly coaxed without a push

Feeding herself for hours.

Butterflies are graceful creatures - I love to watch them on my butterfly bush! Such a perfect show these things can master during the fall ... In my mind I have captured this necklace of a butterfly with small crystal bicones - purple beads and a ivory butterfly pendant. This reminds me of my very best friend, Ruby who happens to love the butterflies also!

18 inches long -

Wearing this necklace will make you feel as graceful as a butterfly.

The Cacoon - 7 1/2 inches -

This bracelet is made with the same crystals and purple beads as the butterfly necklace except the center bead is my little misfit, I call "the cacoon".

Finally spread her wings to fly

Her colors of the prettiest fall

Just a hint of days gone by

Soon it awaits winters call.

Hope you enjoy... Would love a comment on these items!

Have a good day!!

Always Something New!

Each day that passes by I am creating something new - after always being intrigued by a color of stone or some sort of jewelry piece I have seen in a store or on a website. Colors of fall are so beautiful now as leaves begin to change to a lusterous shade of red, brown,beige, yellow and a small amount of green. Such a wonderful warm and cool time of year when the morning air is chilly and crisp and the afternoon is warm and cozy. I am compelled to add all colors into a necklace - below there are three photos of this necklace. The smallest strand is 20" and the two other strands are 1" longer, a nice size to adorn any outfit. Happy Fall!

AUTUMN TRIPLE TEASE

Furnace Beads are one of my favorites to work with

blending colors with colors within the beads is fun!

In fact my granddaughter, Kiara is getting very good at

picking out colors of beads for me! Below are three she helped with.

She named this one "Halloween"

"Santa Claus"

"Winter"

Let us know what you think - would really love a comment or two!

The Workplace:

~My workplace is at home - my room, my place, my mind~

In this room my computer is here for writing when a poem

crosses my mind or when I am making websites. Am sure

you know by now my passion is jewelry making and

writing. These are two hobbies I love; but not as much as

my family! My babies are everything to me - I want to spend

as much time as I can with them before I get too old!

My first great-grandchild, Kenzie - she is with me

three days a week. I really miss her when she isn't here.

A complete delight to spend the day with - she is my

other little model. And of course, this is her favorite necklace.

She usually cries for it, so I made her one with big beads.

~This is Kenzie very own necklace -

She is cutting her teeth with these! ~

Am making my other two babies a teething necklace.

It is important that all of them are treated the same.

A favorite bracelet I made:

I call this bracelet - "Retro" - love the colors

of lime-green, red-orange and blue with

a touch of white... It so reminds me

of the 1950's. One of Grandma's apron had

these colors in them.

*******************************

As a poet, I have to write in a quiet place - when it is

serene and peaceful makes words flow so quickly from my mind.

As a beader, I am sure I could bead almost anywhere as long as I

am not bothered. Too many hands make things difficult. Being

left-handed, it is so hard to teach someone how to do crafts. I've

always been told I do things backwards - I laugh and tell them

"I do it my way!"
