Masquerade Mask Necklace

This "one of a kind" piece is hand made from copper wire. It is sewn with crystals and interesting glass beads. The focal bead is a blue marble that is been netted and wire wrapped. A pretty copper plated chain complements the mask. It measures approximately 16-20 inches.

Mabel

This necklace is named after my aunt who recently passed away. She was full of life and so sweet. I made this piece with copper wire, marbles that I crackled myself, an old earring finding, a button and some vintage beads.

Citrine cross

I stumbled upon this chunky silver cross and wrapped some citrine nuggets on it with copper wire. I love the look of silver and copper together. I'm real fond of this new bail I designed. It is great for interchangeable pendants. I call it the elephant bail. I make them in different sizes depending on the pendant and chain size.

"Speak From The Heart"

"Speak from the heart" is a unique necklace hand made with copper wire. A wild and beautiful pair of lips are incorporated into the pendant which gives it a romantic "gothic feel" All the findings, including the chain are handmade from copper wire. Attention was given to details as you can see by the rose colored head pins. It is accented with vintage beads and tiny red coral beads. An acrylic briolette dangles from the focal piece. It measures approximately 18 inches in length. It would make a great Valentine's gift.

Antoinette

This is a stylized heart shaped collar necklace made from copper wire. It is embellished with dots of red glass beads that encase a heart. The heart holds a natural quartz crystal and an amethyst nugget.A beautiful vintage red bead dangles beneath the collar. It measures approximately 19 inches. It would make a lovely Valentine's gift for someone special. Black oxidized steel wire is loosely woven around the top.

Mechanical Heart

This necklace has a lot of texture and depth. I used a variety of techniques to give the viewer lots to look at. What started out as a filigree heart made from mixed metals turned out to be a glamorous collar neck piece that takes you back in time. The heart center piece is wire wrapped with copper and oxidized stainless steel wire.  Swirls, spirals, coils and shapes were combined to give the heart a life of it's own. Shaped and hammered segments were wrapped and laced with copper wire and tiny seed beads. The dangle is made from dyed coral beads and moonstone briolettes. Red coral beads wrap it around your neck. It is very comfortable to wear. It falls deep on the chest and measures approximately 18-20 inches in length.

Annabelinda

ANNABELINDA: English compound name composed of Latin Anna "favor; grace," and German Belina, "beautiful serpent," hence "gracious beautiful serpent." 

A friend of mine told me this stone looked like a dragon egg so I decided to name it after an ancient dragon name. The stone is called Labradorite and is among my favorite stones. This one comes from Madagascar and has an amazing blue flash. It looks like you're wearing a piece of the ocean. It is sits in a simple copper wrapping that lets it's beauty shine through. It is captured in a heart at the top.  It measures over 2 inches length and will surely turn heads when it rests around your neck. It will hang from a leather cord. 

Angelite ring

Another variation of the copper spiral ring. 14 Ga wire was hand shaped and hammered and a patina was added to create a rich bronze color. Finished ring was coated with a lacquer spray. 

faceless lady brooch

Here is another faceless lady in my brooch collection. She has a vintage look with a beautiful antique orange and iridescent  crystal beads.

Finished necklace

One down of the two I started for Valentine's. Back to the work desk! :)

Carita

I named them "Carita" after their new owner. These earrings were made by request. I did alter them slightly from the original pair. They are weaved with copper wire and then darkened to a rich bronze. Green, faceted glass beaded were added.

I designed this Pendant for Eru, a friend and talented artist of Paragon Inc. I hand made the P from copper wire and wrapped it with sapphire crystals which make the logo look like it's surrounded in lights. I handmade little coil springs and linked them together to make the chain. Over 25 ft of wire was used to make the chain.

Amalie

I love these dyed jade nuggets. They remind me of yummy cherry cola. I wrapped them to a copper frame that I made. I dove into the project while I was caring for my sick dog, Amelie. As we spent the day together, alone in my room, I dove into this project to keep my mind busy. She passed away Friday. She will be missed very much. The necklace is named after her.

Blue Crystal

This is a mosaic pendant made my copper wire and blue and iridescent crystals. I made an oval shaped frame and the weaved it together. I accented  it with deep blue crystal beads A copper chain swings across the center. It hangs from black leather cord with blue crystal beads.

Chalcedony earrings

I am very pleased with how these earrings turned out. I got the wonderful tut online from Nancy Wickman They are from  her woven earrings tutorial.   I did change them up a little bit and added  yummy blue chalcedony briolettes. They are very long and swingy. :) Check out Nancy Wickman's blog at

Masquerade

Masks are always so mysterious and intriguing.  I made this mini masquerade mask from copper wire. After drawing out different sections on paper, I began to shape the components with different gauges of wire. I used 20 Ga., 21 Ga., 26 Ga. and 28 Ga. I decorated it with yellow glass beads, silver glass seed beads and swarovski crystals. It measures 4 inches by 2 inches. In fact, it fits perfectly over my little doggie's eyes. :)

Helena

Helena is a mosaic pendant, I made from copper wire. The pendant is coiled and weaved and then wrapped with swarovski crystals. The cameo/goddess is a brass button. I am fond of the look of mixed metals.

Crystal kitty

I made this fat kitty from copper wire and filled her up with iridescent crystals. She really sparkles.I used my torch to make rose colored ball head pins to shape her eyes. She wears a little red glass tear drop in the middle of her forehead. I would say she is a bit of a princess.

warm your heart owl

This little gal is made with colors of friendship and love. This pendant is made from copper wire, pinkish coral colored shell beads for her eyes. The center is a deep blue faceted glass bead. Her body was shaped and hammered into a heart and wired with shiny pink beads. She is hand made and coiled with lots of 26 Ga. wire. She is ready for a new home.:)
