This necklace was created from various mix media materials (large 3 inch ornate vintage skeleton key, vintage rhinestone brooch and a vintage gold filled praying hands medal) that hang as charms from a 24 inch brass chain. This piece was inspired by the victorian and steampunk movement era which has a very unique mix of old-world and new-world style. This piece would make a great addition to any collection or a great unique signature piece. If you like what you see, please add me to your favorites!

The Gardens of Versailles
•January 25, 2010 • Leave a CommentI have been getting very creative and wish I had the space and time to make more wonderful pieces. When I work I tend to spread out quite abit. I was never one that would draw up a design and then make it. I sit for hours and place the beads in different spot till I think I have the right combination.
I have been working on charm bracelets lately. The colors and texture are really fantastic. Here is a peek of “The Gardens of Versailles”.
You will feel like french royalty in this spectacular charm bracelet fashioned from the beautiful gardens of Versailles!
This charm bracelet has the opulence of the era of Marie Antoinette. You can now find it in my etsy shop.

This dark and dreary morn…..
•September 22, 2009 • Leave a CommentWhat a dreary morning. The sunshine has decided to play hide and seek this morning! And it is doing a great job of hiding. Last night we had heavy fog and then it was still here this morning! The only good thing that could come out of the fog this morning is if Damon from The Vampire Diaries decided to show up! (for all you vampire diaries fans, you know what I mean). I got up this morning ready to start working on some new pieces but just can’t get motivated. Maybe after the sun gets tired of its game and can be found, so can my creativity. In the meantime, here are some new pieces I put up on my etsy shop!
The Time Traveler
•August 22, 2009 • Leave a CommentI saw the Time Traveler Wife last night. The movie was a sweet, yet sad movie about love that endures, despite the fact that the husband under extreme duress, disappears at inordinately and frequent times. Now some may say this is a perfect marriage (me included! LOL)
Could you just imagine the ability to travel to any point in the past or future. Time travel has not been proven to be impossible or possible. But, in some way, we are all time travelers. Time is constantly traveling around us. We have a past, a present and a future. Everything that we do quickly moves into the past.
To help us re-live our travels, I have just listed on my etsy shop, a Time Travelers Charm Bracelet made from lampwork beads, sterling silver, swarvoski crystal, a key charm, a brass heart locket a fluer de lis, and a clock face! You can continue to add charms to the bracelet that you have gathered from your past, and still enjoy them in your future!
For the love of jewelry making!
•August 10, 2009 • 2 CommentsWhy did I ever leave? I keep asking myself. I am a type of person who must always have time to do something, anything it doesn’t matter what. I have been in the advertising business for like ever…it feels like, but that business is no longer doing great. A friend of mine from the advertising world got me hooked on jewelry making way back when, the WHEN, was when no one else did it. I should have stuck to it at that time of my life. But not me, I decided to come back and start making jewelry when it seems EVERYONE and their mothers where making jewelry! LOL The story of my life. I am sure there are many others that feels the same way as I do! I have moved on to other projects but the love of making the jewelry has never left. The sparkle of the rhinestone once in awhile catches my eye, as if its a SOS signal shining in the dark, beckoning me to come closer… closer…..and I could not resist it any longer. So to make my heart feel better, even if its just for me, I have started making more pieces, and will be posting them up on my blog! Feel free to comment on any of my jewelry.
This pair of earrings are made from Sterling Silver, Vintage Rhinestone Drops and beautiful green and yellow lampwork beads!
