Summer Fun!!

I'm having a blast getting ready for all of my summer shows.  Next I'll be at the Triton Museums Midsummer Art Celebration June 22 in Santa Clara, Ca.  In the photo above: A large Turquoise Donut with a wire wrap hook through the donut, turquoise and shell beads.  With it is pictured a sandstone triangle piece with magnesite, wood and turquoise beads.  Sterling silver clasp and matching earrings for both.  (not pictured)
This asymmetrical 16" necklace features a handmade art glass focal bead, cultured fresh water pearls, czech crystals, gold filled wire and clasp.

I loved making this beautiful bracelet.  I'm partial to anything with this turquoise color.  This bracelet has a strong magnetic gold filled clasp, so it's easy on and off.  Included are dichroic glass beads, gold lined czech crystals, more art glass pieces, gold filled accent beads and chain, and there are a few drops too as you can see!

This Dragonfly Bracelet has an assortment of handmade beads: Borosilicate focal bead, art glass beads, gold filled clasp, chain and accents.  There is also a pearl and a tiger eye bead on there too.

Oh!  Here is one pair of those matching earrings I was talking about before.  Displayed on one of my many Earring Stands that I make and sell in my etsy store. Which is pretty empty right now because of my summer Art Shows.  

Each one is different in height and facial features because I make them individually by hand.  My Earring Stands are made from a strong bus wire and her curls are soldered and wire wrapped for added strength.  Set in an acrylic cube, she comes in heights from 2 1/2" to 6".
