The jewelry I love to wear is always rather simple… made to show off a fantastic bead…or three! The focal bead is made by ceramic artist Tari Sasser. When I started making the Rio Party beads, I finally knew what I was going to do with Tari’s fantastic bead! As luck would have it, my friend Heidi Bond – makes gorgeous hand dyed ribbons – had the perfect ribbon to string it and 2 Rio donut glass beads on. Simple and WOW all in one! $42.00 The ribbon is about 25″ and the focal is 2.5″ long.
Fire… This was an end of day bead using red, orange and a golden yellow… One of my all time favorite beads… just a little to small for my needs at just under one inch long and just over 1/4″ wide. Sold
A few more tigers…3 bead set; 12 mm round $17.00
Pair of inverse matching chocolate hearts glass beads. The press I use puts a slight wave pattern in the back and I have not added my usual “puddle” of glass to the bottom sides. The decorations on top are a swirl of either blackberry or mango with a little heart in the opposite color. Great set for earrings! 12.8mm (1/2 inch) hole to hole x 16.5mm wide $10.00
This is a huge HUGE heart and will make a lovely large focal statement for a necklace. It took a long time in the flame! $45.00 Sizes coming…see reference photo below.
The colors of the chakra can be used for meditation or in yogic practices. It is believed that – by concentrating on a color corresponding to a specific body part, healing can be achieved. The colors and their representations in the body are: Red = Base Chakra While these beads were made with meditative intent, they can also serve as just a happy rainbow of colors on your bracelet or necklace. These 7 Big Hole Glass Beads are a basic donut shape and measure 5 mm hole to hole x 12 mm wide. $56.00for the set of made to order beads. The Pandora is not included.
Chocolate hearts decorated in spring pastels… a lavender swirl with a coral heart motif and …vice versa. You KNOW it KILLS me to make two just a like! Perfect for earrings. This is from a new press I have… much thicker beads than I envisioned. The back has a gentle wave pattern lightly embossed in the surface…too light for the camera to see! But discernible to the naked eye and by touch. I love these! Pair is 12.99. Measures 15 mm from top shoulders to bottom hole. 18 mm at widest point. 11 mm THICK.
