Yellow Turquoise (orange) necklace & earrings



Although the stone is called "yellow" turquoise, it is actually a lime green, if you ask me. And this special strand includes hints of burnt orange, hard to capture in the photos. Highlighting all these warm colors are carnelian, citrine and faceted smoky quartz. The necklace is comprised of 15mm yellow turquoise flat discs separated by gold-filled saucer beads, and it measures 17.25" from the tip of the gold-filled ring to the tip of the gold-filled lobster claw. The matching earrings are also made of gold-filled metals and measure a little over 1.5" long. Set is $55 SOLD, but working on a similar version with reds instead of oranges, also with sterling silver instead of gold.

Rose Quartz survivor bracelet


This Rose Quartz bracelet features a sterling silver survivor ribbon charm. Rose quartz round beads are accented with faceted rose quartz. All metals are sterling silver. Measures 7.75". $20 (half goes to the 3-day if purchased in time, or to the American Cancer Society) SOLD, but more can be made!

Personalized PMC charms & beads


Because PMC (Precious Metal Clay) can be worked so easily like modeling clay, you can mold, stamp and carve your own designs into it, personalizing your charm, pendant, keychain, earrings, etc. and end up with a unique (.999) pure silver piece. What a great gift idea!

Wearable souvenirs

If you bring home a souvenir from a special trip or occasion, maybe you want to turn it into a wearable piece of art. This shell came from a special trip to the African coast and is now a lovely pendant. Maybe you have an old momento from a loved one that could be dangled from a bracelet (like grandpa's old transportation tokens or grandma's button collection). Let's work together to see what we can create!

PMC Holy Spirit earrings



These earrings feature a relatively new material called PMC (Precious Metal Clay) which starts as pure silver particles in an organic binder, worked like clay, dried, and fired in my kiln, burning up the binder and leaving behind .999 pure silver.

We are God's pearls of great price...and also notice the three dangles, symbolic of the Trinity. The earrings measure a little over 2" from top of hook to bottom of crystal. SOLD
