Lovely Things from Egypt

Vishal brought me some absolutely beautiful genuine stone necklaces from Egypt! Check these out! (Jade, turquoise, and amber.)


Ruby Mala


Yikes, I've been busy! Here's another version of my Mediterranean Mala but in magenta/ruby.

Lisa's Purse Charm


I made this purse charm for Lisa...I love how it came out! Hope she likes it! :) I used lots of head pins with seed beads and a bunch of different acrylic beads I had lying around. The plastic letters I have had in my collection since I was a teenager! I knew I'd find a use for them some day!

Mediterranean Mala


I found these acrylic beads recently and fell in love with them. They look much nicer in person. I love how light they are so you can make a long necklace without the weight. The wood beads I found in Virginia earlier this month. I used silver spacers in between the two.

Bennie's Watch


This is my attempt at a watch and it turned out great! I made this for Bennie on Mother's Day. I used a silver-tone watch face with multicolor czech glass beads and a magnetic clasp. Happy Mother's Day Bennie! :)

Tribal River Necklace

It's been a while since I posted pics, only because I've been so busy with school that I haven't had time for creativity! Here are some of my newest creations...


This is my Tribal River necklace. I used large turquoise stones between varying wood beads. Andy picked out these long wood beads that I used to make him a bookmark for Christmas.
