Creating

I love earrings and things but can never find what I really like or something that 10,000 other women don't have. I always want something simple, original, don't want to pay a zillion bucks and the department stores leave me disappointed. That led me to begin making my own many years ago. Now I make what I like and sell them. I love natural stones and Swarovski crystal so I try to find interesting colors. I use the most natural materials I can find. I love stones such as the different jaspers, agates, wood and others. For me, Swarovski crystal is simply the best. When I lived in Germany I had the opportunity to drive to Austria and visit their factory. That was impressive!

I have tons of earrings and necklaces and am always ready to show people what beads I have so they can choose something they like. They tell me what they want; color, material, necklace, earring and then I put together a design. I've found that when you let a customer design their own they are never happy with the result! When I make the wire earrings ( not the threaders ) I sell them with stoppers because there's nothing worse than losing an earring. I also make earrings that have post backs. I keep my prices reasonable and sell through email contact because I work out of my home or at my girlfriend's shop on occasion. It's fun and keeps me busy.

Here are some of the simple things I make.
