Is this not the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?? From Ravenworks Studio's amazing Leslie Campbell, Raven herself!

Sometimes a design gets in your head and just won't leave. I've had this amazing moon coin, a 136,794,240:1 exact replica of the moon's surface, a quarter ounce of Fine Silver (that's 99.9% pure silver!) rolling around in my head right alongside the equally amazing, American-handcrafted Dichroic Lampwork beads I'm working with. I've worked for DAYS trying to put the right combination together to do both components justice but I'm still not there yet! More thinking it over, more reworking it, more pictures coming...

I'm finding, more and more, that making jewelry is much like my writing days: even once a piece was published, I was still making changes to it in my head. This piece may still be a work in progress even once it is sold! 🤪 --Carla

Yep, I do a little of everything here. Helped this bride-to-be design her dream ring. Almost 2 carats of Emerald-cut, step-cut diamond to show off the clarity of this exceptional stone. In 14k. On her finger soon! What can I help you with? -- Carla 😘

Did you know there's another side to Windsong Studio besides jewelry class instruction? We're also home to Beadwork Dreams, a brand entering its 22nd year of creating expertly handcrafted jewelry!

Ahhh...love is in the air! Genuine Swarovskiᵀᴹ Crystal hearts and accents are paired with Sterling Silver for my 2026 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙨 𝘼𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚 Collection! Message me! -- Carla 💜

It's a new year and I feel like a new me! So excited to be making new friends, making new jewelry, and making plans for new classes!

If you're in the Tri-Cities of East Tennessee, don't miss First Friday in Erwin! Stop by the new location of Ravenworks Studio and say hello to my sweet friend Leslie Campbell on your way over to visit my new friend Jan at Union St Gallery LLC!

😘 -- Carla

My new friend Jennifer got a gift certificate for the studio from someone who loves her. She made this beautiful Sterling Silver and Amethyst necklace! I know she'll be proud to say, "I made it myself" as she gets the compliments I know will be coming her way!

Greetings to my new Tennessee followers! I was super-excited to roll out my 2024 fall schedule, but then came a flood. While my family was not affected, the effect on my friends and our community was devastating. I've had to rework schedule and venues, and will soon be bringing you exciting classes, so please bear with me and stay tuned! And my heartfelt thanks for your patience! -- Carla

Our thoughts and prayers are with our East TN and NC neighbors, along with everyone affected by Hurricane Helene. Soon enough we'll be rolling out plans for more jewelry-making fun, but now is not the time for fun. For now, our focus is on assisting our community as best we can. -- Carla, Jonesborough, TN
