I had worked on a few really big really complicated pieces and I just needed a break. I wanted to make something small, easy, and quick. That isn't usually my style but I really needed the mental break of it. I really like how they came out and I'm not the only one. The very first pair that I made sold within a week. Does this mean I will make more? absolutely! I have a limited number of these pearls but other than that I think these will be staples in my store. I don't make

The very first time I went to a gem show I bought a lot of things without really knowing what would work for me and what wouldn't. As a result I bought a lot of things that are extremely hard to use. Check out the blue and red crystals in these two bracelets. They are so tiny! I tried like six different times to use them without just fully covering the entire stone in beads. And It wasn't until I managed this version of their bezel that I was finally able to make something t

A truly insane amount of math (trial and error) went into this piece. I knew the dimensions I needed to make the smaller peyote piece work, but I didn't know how big the larger one would have to be in order to make it work. After about four or five tries I got this to work. It has exactly the amount of mobility that I wanted it to have. The smaller one can rotate almost freely (it feels like it can rotate freely but since I understand the construction I know it will only go s

I made these as part of a series of trying to work on my scariest stones. These ones freaked me out because I just loved the colors so much, and I was afraid of ruining them. I actually am really happy I tackled them! It was a real challenge not to put the bicones all the way around the stones. But I really liked the bottom-heavy look of this. And I felt like it really accentuated the oblong stones. The metallic green was just perfect. I think I can do better on the purple b

You saw the light colored ones yesterday. These caused a lot less mental strife for me. I just asked the people on my tiktok to help me decide and then I did what they said! Turns out that they had good ideas and I love how these came out! I don't have too much to say about them because they already sold!

These were a challenge for me, none of the colors felt like they matched exactly perfectly. But honestly, I love the end result anyway. I think the fact that I pulled together a solid colorway meant that everything fits even if it isn't a perfect match. Something for me to consider in future projects for sure. I should be less nitpicky about the colors and pay attention to the whole palette instead. These are so gorgeous, in the sunlight, they sparkle like you wouldn't belie

I had 24 of these teeny tiny little Swarovski crystals. I thought they were too small to use so I sat on them for a really long time. And then I made the gold flowers and I loved it. Then I thought, why fix it if it ain't broke? I decided to go ahead and use up all the small crystals to make these flowers in a ton of different colors. In some ways its a risk, cause I made 12 earrings without knowing if any of them will sell. But also, I don't really know what else I was going

I know just said yesterday that patterns can be a lot on these dragons but I take it all back! The pattern on this dragon is to die for! I love the pops of red, the way the gold snakes around and the neutral background of the black. It might be a challenge for someone to style this piece but I think that if someone can it will be so worth it. Imagine an entire outfit styled around these, it would be amazing. You might only be able to wear it to like one event but the event wo

While the patterns are a fun challenge to make the solid color dragons do always sell faster and more efficiently than the more complicated ones. When you are wearing the bracelet I think it is easier to style a solid gold bangle than a complicated colorful one. Plus there is the saying that it should be interesting through, color, shape, texture, or material but not all at once. These have an amazing texture, and sometimes adding color can be too much. But this basic gold? C

I didn't really want to put a pattern into this bracelet, but I only had 4g of the silver beads and I need around 17g total to make one of these. I do love how the stripes came out! I think this dragon has a far more feminine, delicate look to it than most of them that I make. Yes it has a pink belly and that could be a factor but I am actually attributing it to the more muted color palette all around. The soft white, the slightly matte silver, and the muted pink. It just fee

This was my first stab at putting a pattern in the dragon's scales and I was really happy with how snakelike it came out. I thought it would end up a lot more symmetrical than it did, but the offset of the scale gave it a wiggly, more natural look. It wasn't my intent but I love it. I also intended for it to have an entirely black belly but I ran out of black beads pretty early on so I transitioned to a gold gradient and finished it out in gold.

This was a super interesting thing to work with. It is entirely acrylic so that was odd. Usually I work with genuine stones so this was interesting. It had the tiniest bit of give which was weird, but also I wasn't worried about dropping and breaking it. I was afraid that the beads would cover up too much of the design but that didn't really end up being a problem. I really enjoyed this project and if shoppers like it too I might end up working on similar ones in the future.

I made about four, maybe five, but I think four of these watchband style bracelets from these tila beads. And they all sold!!! When I did my popup at the winery I sold every single one of the watchband style bracelets that I had made. It was a really exciting moment for me, usually I sell maybe one piece at a time of a given style so it was really cool to have so many people gravitate to the same stuff. Especially because they had sat in my inventory for so long prior to that
