-Shopping Information-
-Sizes- all necklaces include an adjustable clasp which allows it to be worn at either 16 " or 18" if you need it 18"
to 20", it will cost an additional $20.00, 20" to 22" an additional $40.00.

-Metal choices and options- Some of these designs are only available in Sterling Silver(STG) because the
beads I used are not available in Gold. I can reproduce some of my designs in White Gold (KTW), Yellow Gold
(KTY), and Gold-filled (GF). The Gold-filled I use is 70% Gold verses the usual 50%. The higher Gold
content helps keep the skin healthy and free of allergic reactions.  Dyane

Melora's  focal point is this
beautifully Hand -crafted
Sterling Silver Flower. It has a
very Asian feel to it so adding
pearls, even if they are
Swarovski Simulated Pearls was
only natural.
There is something very feminine about
these hollow Sterling Silver beads. They
have a lacy design. I couldn't resist using
Swarovski Simulated Pearls combined
with Their crystals. I've added liquid silver
beads in between and have strung this
piece on Soft-Flex(49 strands of
stainless steel encased in nylon).
-There is nothing delicate
about the way April   grabs and
holds peoples' attention. This
very dainty and feminine pieces
with its roses has an
understated elegance.
-Colleen  is two pieces in one because it is a
lariat. It can be worn as pictured with the
strands doubled or the long way. The finished
length is 45". You can place a custom order
for a shorter version. I'm willing to take a
custom order for this piece in 14kt Gold or
Gold-filled
I love the juxtaposition of the LASER-cut
Sterling Silver beads, which look like silver
sand and twinkle like silver stars with rough
edged Crystal Quartz chips.  These
components create a piece which features a
strong contrast in textures.
The rest of the piece features Swarovski
Crystals and Sterling Silver beads with a
smooth finish. The length is adjustable from
16in- 18in. The piece is strung on Soft Touch
beading wire.
My Susie Necklace was inspired by
this Sterling Sliver Frame and these
square, hollow Sterling Silver beads
all created by Bill Rerich of Pegasus
Imports. This piece also features
Swarovski Simulated Pearls adorned
by more crystals.
- One of the things I pride myself on, is my quest to create pieces that are versatile, this is one of those pieces. Eve was created by a
method Beaders call "Bead Soup". It is a process where a collection of beads are combined in a bowl and strung at random. Its a fun
and spontaneous technique. This "Bead Soup" necklace contains hypoallergenic Sterling Silver leaves (& beads), Swarovski
Crystals, Crystal pearls, fresh water pearls, Crystal Quartz, Czech pressed glass (beads and seed beads). Its strung on a beading wire
called Soft Touch, which is 7 strands of  stainless steel encased in nylon. This necklace can be worn 3 ways, with the clasp in the front
featuring the pretty "dangle"(shown), twisted (with the dangle in the front or down your back), or loose with the "dangle" in the back(see
other views). Its length is 18" but I welcome Special orders for shorter (16in.) or longer lengths but they cost a little more.
-Victoria  is a piece I envision being worn by a
young "Noble" woman on her Wedding Day. It is a
little more elaborate than Anne yet I kept the
overall look very delicate. I have combined Sterling
Silver beads created by Bill Rerich of Pegasus
Imports with Beads designed by Nina Cooper of
Nina Designs, Swarovski Simulated Pearls and
Crystals.

This is Mia, a collection of some of the most beautiful beads available. I have combined Venetian Hand Blown glass beads created by an
American Artist, who has a studio in Venice, Italy. Hollow  Artisan Sterling Silver Repousse and other patterned Sterling Silver beads
add some visual interest  to the necklace. I've added Onyx,  Swarovski Crystals and Czech pressed glass beads to carry the colors of the
Venetian glass beads throughout  the necklace. The black links are coated with a black metal sealant and the links have hash marks created by
LASER
She started out as a simple multi-strand necklace. Oh well, this is what happens when I try to do that! The inspiration for this piece came
from a strand of black chain. I always use supplies that are hypoallergenic (Nickel-free) in all my Wire Wrapped" pieces. I wanted to use this
chain but I needed to find a supplier who carried a chain that had a coating on it that was permanent. Once I did, I was able to play with the idea
for a multi strand piece. I don't make these very often so it was a challenge to balance each strand to create the vision I had in my head with my
hands.
Here is the result. The first version was three strands which were not connected but The largest glass bead made the piece off balance,
somehow. So, I played with a variety of ideas and here is the result.
The finished necklace is adjustable between 22in. and 24in.
