I have been making jewelry and jewelry components/findings since 2006. I started making my own handmade beads and findings when I discovered I couldn't locate what I wanted commercially; making handmade jewelry components is labor and time intensive, and often requires a lot of skill, so handmade components are usually more expensive than mass-produced commercial ones.

In addition to seed beads, I enjoy working with copper and sterling silver, but also dabble in aluminum and other metals, like brass. I love the brilliant colors I can achieve with enameling, too!

This shop is all about quality handmade jewelry supplies, with some high quality commercial supplies thrown into the mix, too.
