I have many loves...another small addiction of mine, BEADS!

Being a mommy of two little girls, I must admit that it has been the best! I can't image it any other way...all the "girly" things that I get to do with them and at the same time drive my husband nuts!! They have been an inspiration to everything that I do! They inspired me to start a small business in 2007 of handcrafted children room decor items (painted knobs, customized switch plates and outlets, wall hangings, shelves, personalized clocks, etc.), personalized children's books, photography, and now jewelry beading!

Here's a few of my recent bracelet pieces! I mostly do bracelets since they are the most popular. I had started doing them with wire and clasps but just recently discovered the advantages of using heavy-duty elasticized cording! It's flexible which the child can put it on and off without mom's help and quite honestly, it won't break as easily as the wire one would.

Most of my bracelet vary in prices starting from as low as $2.00 up to $30.00 (real sterling silver bracelets with precious stones, etc.).

Here's a few recent bracelets of mine. The flowers in the middle are handmade by me...they are made of Polymer Clay! They are pretty sturdy but are still fragile, I wouldn't recommend wearing them while horse-playing or around water :).
