Ring Beads in Action

This was the first necklace I made for my daughter, Jessica.  It was my first time playing around the these type of beads too.  It took a little bit to figure out how I wanted to the design to look and make it happen, but this turned out as one of the best.  

You can wear this necklace with absolutely anything.  The colors will match any outfit.  


It's versatile and will catch anyone's eye because it's bold and different.  


My theory is to always go bold!  :)

3 Strand Colored Rings

This is the first necklace I designed.  I made it as a Christmas project with one of my daughters.  We have made a few for other ladies in our family and receive compliments on it a lot.  I love the variety of colored rings.  The different colors add a lot to the design and make it more fun.  
 It can be done in different colors with different center beads.

Fun and Funky

This necklace is different, off-center a bit, but colorful as always.   It's also a bit simple compared to some of the other necklaces I've made.    Though it's not as chunky it still makes a big statement when worn.  
The fact that the beads go together due to their color, but are all different shapes and have no definite structure makes it funky.

You can dress is up, but wear it with jeans and a cute top.  The clasp loosens and tightens with the strings, which are attached, but made to move.  

The beads and colors can be changed based on request and need.

Multicolored Twist Necklace

This is a necklace I made for a friend's wedding.  She asked for 3 necklaces and 3 bracelets to go with the 6 bridesmaid's dresses.  The dress color was turquoise, but she wanted a mixture of that color with others she was using as an accent.

The necklace is in 3 strands and twisted so each strand rolls around the others.  The beads are in 3's by color and patterned green, white, pink, blue.

This was a fun one to make and looked beautiful.
