I began making beaded jewelry and accessories several years ago and I have been hooked ever since. I really enjoy the process of designing and creating fun pieces that can fit any occasion. I work with a lot of different types of materials to craft jewelry and accessories for both men and women. I also make colorful and safe accessories for children. Each item you find in my store was created with loving care and quality materials in my home studio in Glen Allen, Virginia."
