I’m trying to make smaller focals… A struggle for a gigantic bead lover like me. ;0)
Rectangular bead, brown basket weave base with lavender flowers and vine cane design. Slightly different on both sides. 20 mm hole to hole x 15mm x 10 mm thick. $7.00

Handmade glass button in blue and green with lots of metallic shimmer. The perfect accent for knit wear! Rustic yet elegant… 37 mm x 29 mm $15.00

This is a really stunning, eye-catching necklace! It was one of my Art Bead Scene entries last year and you can read about it here. I often keep things that took me considerable time and effort just to admire them. I often don’t feel I’m “ready” to part with them but… a girl has to make a living.
In addition to the water lily focal and lily pads – made by me, this necklace features a variety of green, pink, purple and blue handmade lampwork beads by a number of other artists. There are almost 100 genuine Swarovski crystals and a smattering of Bali silver and E beads. This piece was inspired by the painting Water Lilies by Monet. The perfect gift for a woman who loves fun, unique jewelry and art! $165.00

Mini lampwork bead set of colorful lentils. Three beads; each 14 mm hole to hole. $11.99
  
Shibori is form of Japanese dying – Kind of like our tye – dye but usually quite elegant. this glass bead reminds me of shibori. It is colorful and elegant. It is a long barrel focal made from a temperamental pink glass. If you know you’re going to make something mad, you might as well try to have a little fun with it, right? So, I deliberately used glasses that I thought would make that base glass react and boy did she! tones from pink, mauve, lavender to coral and olive appeared! There is a black and gold ribbon running around the bead as well. This beauty just shimmers in the light! It won’t disappoint! $32.00
Photos above show three views of the same bead.
Measures 53mm hole to hole x 11 mm wide.
 
I love the size and shape of this glass bead but the red didn’t strike as much as I had hoped. Still, it’s really pretty and large! Measures: 27.2 mm hole to hole x approx 19 mm wide. $15.00 $9.00
