Some joy


My fashion piece got so much attention from different people and that got me thinking.
Some people wanted me make the piece for then but unfortunately, I think it was and is a once off piece. I decided to make something much smaller and more affordable. Bright colours are the in thing for me. I find that they bring me some kind of joy or arouse some kind of emotion.

Inside Out



I think beading has made my hands or my brain a bit lazy, I’ve almost forgotten how to use my tools properly and this is why I made this pendant. I wanted to get back to the swing of things. This pendant is made of silver, has a beaded frame with a London blue topaz set in the middle. I call it the inside out pendant because it is reversible, you can wear it in any way and it will look different yet it is the same.

Day to day!


I will not deny the fact that all the pieces i've made are colourful and vibrant. I
can’t say that this piece of jewellery is colourful. This piece of jewellery is ment to be different from the rest, something that can be worn daily with almost anything.Some people are more colour corsios then others and bright colours are just not ment for them. This suttle neck piece is ment for them.

To match!

With this piece, i wanted to do something different. I wanted to add value to my bead word by adding precious metal.

Show piece

This is a section of the show piece,it beaded all around in bright colourful beads.

Toned down

Earrings to match

My fashion piece

This picture doesn't do it any justice.

No such ting as a mistake!

This ring came but when i was playing with beads,trying to bead a flat disc but i found out that the more i pulled on the string, the more the beads became wavey.

Heart of hearts

Emotions

I call this piece emotions because i was very sick at the time i made it.

Magic ring.


I call this the magical piece because of the ball's movement on the shank. As the ball moves around you get to see the different stones set on it.
These earrings are one of the pieces that were designed from the bubble pendent.
