Mother of Pearl

These pieces were commissioned for a local charity auction. The open discs are mother of pearl. The necklace is long and continuous so it has no clasp and is easy to wear. The bracelet is on stretch cord.

Beaded Cuff

This beaded cuff is my first foray into wire work. I learned how to do this in a class at JoAnn Fabrics. I am looking forward to working more with wire. I have some copper wire I found at a yard sale that I'm going to experiment with.

Wood

These are some pieces from my wooden bead collection. The rhino necklace is a particular favorite of mine; his name is Irving and he is in my personal collection. He had a brother, Walter, but he has been sold.

Matthew 6:33 bracelet

The Matthew 6:33 Bracelet: Seek God first, He'll take care of the rest!

The six matching center beads represent the sixth chapter of Matthew. The three matching beads on either side represent "thirty three," the thirty third verse. This creates a visual reminder to seek God, to seek His presence, and then He'll take care of the rest of your needs.

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Matthew 6:33, NIV
