Sizing info

One of the most common questions I get from customers is how to measure for bracelets. I have this info on my site, but wanted to post it here as well. Having the right bracelet size is important for comfort, look and wear. There is a standard size that most bracelets are sized to, which is 7.5", although as we all know, not all sizes necessarily fit all. Which is another benefit to having a designer hand-make your jewelry for you- adjustments are a regular part of my work:)

When measuring your wrist make sure to use a thin string or a strip of paper to ensure the closest possible measurement. Once that measurement is taken, add 1- 1.25" to it and that is your bracelet size. For children add .5 inches.
Petite- 7"
Small- 7.25
Medium- 7.5
Large- 7.75
X-large- 8"

Craftersbuzz.com

I just wanted to share a good site with you all, I know how hard it is to get your site listed in the search engines and all the exposure you can get, the better! Especially when it's free!
Someone in one of the jewelry forums I am a member of tipped me off to craftersbuzz about 3 months ago, and so far, it's been worth it, your items rotate through the front page (I've actually seen mine there from time to time) and you basically open a gallery with pictures of your items which automatically all link back to your site, so when people click on a picture, they end up exactly where you want them to be. Check it out!

Holiday Jewellery

As I promised in my last post, these are a few of my most recent designs for the Holidays. The first is sterling silver chain and citrine briolettes,

the second is a combination of handmade glass beads, handmade sterling chain maille by Jennifer Casady (an extremely accomplished mailler:) and carnelian rondelles.

The third necklace is freshwater pearls, handmade glass, garnet and gold filled beads and clasp.

There is more to come in the next couple of weeks, so be sure to check back:)

Recently Sold

Well, it's just about that time again, and sales are picking up as proof. I've been offering specials on my 2006 stock to clear it out before the New Year, and at the same time offering some new items for the Holidays starting next week:) Some of these items include a couple of different versions of Salvation brcelets with Genuine Olive wood beads from Israel. *The wood is taken from branches that have fallen off of the trees naturally.

In addition, I'll have some classic Holiday styles, and a couple of fun surprises as well.

All of my shows will be in the next few weeks, and that means a lot of work for me, in an attempt to keep up, but very welcome all the same:)

These are just a few of my recently sold items, a couple of them are current favorites of mine.

Autumn 2006 jewelry

Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've posted here, sorry about that, I've had a ton of things on the go!
I've had time however to create some new items for fall and these are a few examples of that.

The first item is made with boro beads and tons of Balinese silver, which was inspired by the transition from Summer to Autumn, with blues and rusts that compliment eachother very nicely.

The second item directly above is made with large bronzite ovals, freshwater pearls and a mix of Bali silver and Hilltribe silver in honour of the golden shades everywhere right now.

This last item is called "Autumn in Calgary", which is exactly the inspiration behind it. I have beautiful surroundings here and am very blessed to live in a city as beautiful and rich in nature as Calgary is. This is the first piece I've dedicated to Calgary and I'm so happy with it, that I'm sure it wont be the last.
