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.)
