This is my 18th year of beading. I love learning new stitches, and making jewelry that is colorful and lustrous.
    
     For me, beadweaving is a slow, solitary, and meditative creative process.
The geometric patterns and sculptures that emerge explore the potential of beads as a vibrant medium.  I love the creative possibilities, textures, and colors that the beads provide.  

      My beadwoven jewelry is eye-catching for both casual use & sophisticated outfits.
Necklaces, bracelets, earrings, pendants & rings made with only natural materials, such as pearls, crystals, glass beads, abalone, Mother-of-Pearl, and Gemstones.

       When I am not beading, I am playing pickleball, biking, working out, playing Mah Jongg, or reading,

     Please take a minute now to enjoy the gallery of Lustrous Beaded Creations! 

      If you see something you like for yourself, or as a gift, please let me know!! 
I love custom work!  You may write to me directly at:  lustrousbeadedcreations@gmail.com
