I began making bracelets and necklaces using pearls and leather and other beads two years ago after never being able to find what I liked or could afford in stores or online. I took a class on pearl knotting to get some basic knotting knowledge and it just grew from there. Designing unique, wearable everyday pieces that reflect the basic rawness of leather mixed with the beauty of pearls, turquoise, and any other shiny or cool bead I can find is very rewarding to me. I also will take your individual special charms, beads and treasures and make necklaces designed around them using your choice of leather and length and pearl color to make it a special personalized one-of-a-kind piece. An accountant by day, I hope to begin attending more venues to show my designs.
