Blue dichroic glass earrings
I made these cabs from translucent dichroic glass, then used my grinder to create a lip around the glass. I hand-wrapped sterling silver wire around the glass, and made three loops from which hang many glass and sterling beads as well as some Swarovski crystals. Two of the dangles are also handmade. These earrings measure almost 3.25" from the very top of the earwire hook to the bottom of the longest dangle. SOLD

Some of my latest work (SOLD). The first is made of yellow turquoise and gray shell (poor lighthing, sorry). The middle picture is a confirmation gift. I made the pendant of PMC (fine silver clay), designed the dove, cut it out of the clay, stamped the word FAITH in it, and fired it in my kiln. I also added a white coin pearl and chrysoprase bead. The last photo is a pair of earrings I made with PMC (the bottom rings) and gray/purple coin pearls. Click on photos to see more detail.

Silver and Smoke earrings
These earrings were handmade by me out of Art Silver Clay with the lower areas accented in black. The edges have a rough appearance, and I hand wrapped the drops with sterling silver wire. The faceted smoky quartz drops are light enough to make these earrings go with any outfit. SOLD

My Own Private Island



When I saw this pendant, I was immediately taken to the ocean on my own private island. I searched for beads to compliment my island and found a beautiful shade of amazonite that looks like pieces of the sea. I then created two silver PMC globes, made to look like little earths, to symbolize traveling the world. So come sail away and drink up the sun with your own island!
Materials used: agate, amazonite, pure (.999) silver, sterling silver. SOLD (with some customization)

Dark green and gold dichroic glass earrings



These beautiful earrings are made of dichroic glass with a copper gleam to them, fused on top of dark green glass that is sparkly (like glitter in the glass). The dark green looks almost black if you block the light from shining through (ie, if you have long hair). I ground a lip/ridge around the glass in which I wrapped gold-filled wire to attach the gold-filled french hooks and copper colored Swarovski crystals.
The earrings measure approximately 3 inches from the top of the french hook to the bottom of the crystal. $25 SOLD
