She's finished!! "Becoming" is a statement collar necklace in soft blue, navy, and metallic rainbow colours, with a shimmering blue Goldstone center, and sterling silver findings.

Come see (and try on!) this one-of-a-kind bead embroidered piece this Friday and Saturday at the Grand River Arts Festival in Brantford. This is one of a few brand new pieces I'll be bringing up the show -- and I'm so excited to show you all what I've been working on these past few months!

Ugh, why am I like this?! I have so many plans and deadlines and schedules to keep ... and then the new shiny thing sends me off the rails.

I can still get everything done in time, right? Right?? 🫠

People often ask how long my pieces take to make. I started this beaded collar necklace in early 2025, and have worked on it off and on for the last year and a half. All of the beading, with the exception of the gold edge beads, are extra small (size 15/0) seed beads, so filling this much space took a very long while! Maybe 100 hours, all told? Hopefully the end result is worth it.

"Autumn Wind" will be posted shortly in my next website update.

I'm glad I snapped a few pictures of this necklace while I could! It's already found its wearer.

Thank you so much to everyone who stopped by to see my work this past weekend at the Dundee Artisan Festival Dundee Artisan Festival. We had perfect weather, music to entertain us all day – and I was thrilled that my new pieces connected so quickly with festival goers!

This necklace was such a fun piece to create. I loved finding beads that perfectly brought out the colours in this stunning piece of jasper, and playing with a variety of bead finishes to bring in some subtle contrast. I played up the asymmetrical cut of the stone with long, dagger-tipped fringe, and used impression jasper beads in the bail and necklace chain.

I have a few other new pieces debuting soon! Swipe for a sneak peak at my new labradorite and amethyst necklaces, or come see me in person this Saturday at the Lavender Bloom Festival!

This Sunday!

Join me this weekend at the Dundee Artisan Festival! There'll be an amazing market of handmade and artisan goods, live music all day, food trucks, and activities for the kids. I'm bringing so many new pieces -- new necklaces, bracelets, brand new earrings designs, and more. And the weather's looking good, too (knock on wood, fingers crossed, etc.).

Hope to see you there!
