Where Do You Find Inspiration?

I find inspiration for bead colors and designs everywhere! I look at patterns, textures, color combinations everywhere I go. Inspiration can come from almost anything. Can you tell what inspired me to make this set? Mickey and Minnie, of course!

Customer Creations!

I am so excited that my Etsy customers have been sharing photos of the beautiful jewelry they have made using my beads! I am always amazed at the amount of talent here on Etsy, and am thrilled that these artists have chosen to incorporate my beads into their work. Here are some of my favorites: designsbydehoyos and dkjewels. Be sure to check out their shops!

Are You Ready for Halloween?

I know, it seems like Halloween is a long way away, but it will be here before you know it! I have already seen all the decorations in craft stores and if you're like me, now is the time to start thinking about making Halloween jewelry. I have come up with some fun beads for just this occasion - take a look!
