About this Product
I saw this mix of bead and just had to make a new spring/summer series. There are multiple items available with this series. If you don't see something that fits your needs, please ask. I would love to make it for you.This necklace is a mix of bell flower beads. The beads are Czech glass and measure 6x8mm in size. The colors are a mix of matte, clear, opal, and luster finish beads. I see Montana blue, clear sage, clear topaz, opal toffee, and mauve plum.
The last couple of photos show another one in different colors. As I get more listings up, that one will be available too, but if you can't wait, just message me.
This necklace, as shown, is 16 inches with a 2 inch extender chain. If you prefer a different length, please ask. It is designed to wear short, but you may need it to be 18" and I am happy to do that.
I also have these available in silver or gunmetal finish.

Meet the Maker
This is MY WHY
A light-bulb moment happened to me while I was listening to a business talk regarding the question, “Why are you doing what you are doing?” Such a simple question but for me, the answer is complex. I am, at heart, a craftswoman. I have a Master’s degree in art with an emphasis in ceramics. I am a maker, an artisan. I am happiest when I am making things, whether it is pottery or jewelry.
But my “why” has developed over the years to become something bigger than the art of design and making. My purpose is my family. I am a mom to four amazing young adults! When one of my daughters was just a baby (she’s in her 20s now!), I was a potter without a studio and needed to consider other ways to engage my artist energy. Around the same time, a new online market had started for handmade sellers. Jewelry became a way to fulfill this need to create while providing a stream of income for my family. The timing could not have been more perfect as we were going through a real rough patch and had four hungry mouths to feed. Three of those hungry mouths discovered a love for dance and my jewelry income began to pay for dance and sports.
As they have grown, our financial needs have shifted. As each of my kids hit the high school years, they were each diagnosed with a progressive and degenerative disease that affects their peripheral nerves. The disease atrophies the muscles in their feet & legs and hands & arms. As you can imagine, this has been a life-changer for them all. And this is how I gained my new motivation, my renewed energy, and strong sense of purpose. This is my why - THEY are my why. I am doing everything in my power to help them get their start in their adult lives on a solid foundation - without pulling college loans.
This shop (and my original one) represents the culmination of my motivation and my purpose. Thank you for supporting MY WHY!
A few years ago I was personally tasked with a mission to find a metal that wasn't as expensive as pure gold and silver, but that would be good for those with metal sensitivities. I found that pure titanium does not bother even the most sensitive ears. Every pair of earrings available in my shop can be made with titanium ear wire. I can also work with your ideas for bracelets and necklaces.
