  • My Granny and sometimes my Uncle Richard.

  • I use 11/0, 13/0 glass seed beads, porcupine quills that my granny and I collected, vintage glass beads from her collection, shells and semi precious stones .

    I also use Nymo D, 00 and beeswax.

  • Sadly at this time I am not. I currently work full time and unleash my creativity in my down time.

    Watch my Instagram stories for possible custom openings in the future.

  • Old books, memories, Instagram, Pinterest, nature, other beaders.

    I know some of us get dreams of beads or the work. I get those quite frequently.

    When I was younger I used to copy other peoples work if Granny couldn’t teach me.

    We are all artists and its how we learn so I am not against you “borrowing” ideas but please give credit when credit is due.

  • Yes! 100%!

    My creations are for everyone. I do not believe that one “people” have the right to own something and that if you put it out in the world it is meant for all to see!

    We are all beautiful and art is just that. If it makes you feel beautiful then wear it!

  • No. Each creation is hand-crafted. It takes time and patience and sometimes tears and blood to create.

    When I send it out into the world it is a piece of me. If you are asking to return it you are asking to return a piece of me.

    Sometimes my creations will find their way back to me by no fault of their own. If that is the case I thank the creator until such a time as they are ready to leave me again.
