Livi strikes again....

So there have been some visitors from the mainland here and last Thursday night Livi decided she wanted to make surprised bracelets form Angel, Kate and her mom Becca. So she picked out all the beads for each one. And even approved or changed the pattern I suggested to make it (in her words) "just perfect." 

It was so fun helping her bring smiles to others faces. I absolutely loved being her partner. Who knows maybe she will just have to help all the time!! (She even reminded me, "Don't forget the pattern!! Its important.") She is already a pro at this....

Having fun with Nessa & Livi....

So tonight I got to hang out with two cute little girls who are best friends. They wanted to make some bracelets before Nessa moved back to the mainland next week. So of course I was game. And here is what they came up, (which by the way, they both picked out their own beads by them selves. I only helped with the pattern a little. So I can not take full credit for any of these)

Here is adorable Nessa's....

Made with: Sterling Silver clasp and flower charm, brown seed beads, blur fluted 8mm round glass beads and pink 9mm heart glass beads.

And Miss Livi's....

Made with: Sterling Silver clasp, Sterling Silver 3mm spacer beads, tan seed beads, 9mm pink heart glass beads, 11mm donut porcelain beads and 10mm pink porcelain flower beads.

I thought it was so cute how they both wanted the Heart beads so they could have a piece of their bracelets match. Friends Forever!!

They even conked out on the couch and refused to take them off!! So cute!!

Noel's Birthday Present....

So one of my most amazing friends turned 22, and I just had to make her something unique. I bought her a bunch of stiff from Hawaii but I just had to make her something special. I hand picked out the square beads at the bead show I went to in HI, and they just remind me of the sandy beaches here. I figured she could have a piece of my paradise with here every time she wore them.

Earrings made with: Sterling Silver ear wires, tan seed beads, Czech purple glass beads, and hand painted 10mm square Czech Glass beads

 Bracelet made with: Sterling Silver toggle, tan seed beads, Czech purple glass beads, and hand painted 10mm square Czech Glass beads

Christmas Present for Macy....

So this year for one of my favorite 13 year-olds in the world, Macy, I made this wonderful earring and bracelet set. It was my first attempt at a set, and I think it turned out well. Plus I hand picked the beads at my first ever bead show in HI. I knew the second I saw them they were perfect for her. And she loved them!! (sometimes I'm that good.)
