Do you treasure your beach walks or time visiting the seaside?  

Wearing this barnacle inspired necklace is one way to honour the pull of the ocean.  

The ocean and beach walking inspire peacefulness - why not carry that with you all the time?

As an artist, I never really know how my pieces will turn out until they are done.  

These two statement necklaces came together after playing around with the oceany blue glass beads and my bronze pieces.  

I really like how they turned out. 

They will be available in my next release.  Insiders get to shop first, so get on my list and join them!  Sign up with your email below.

If you have been hanging around here, then you know that I am inspired by oceany things.

One of my favourite forms to create is the barnacled shell.  Since all of the pieces I am currently working on are part of my collaboration with Kanna Glass Studio, these pieces of course incorporate her lovely, oceany blue beads.  

These barnacle pieces will all be in my next release, which is coming before the end of the month.  

If you want to be first to shop these pieces, then you had better sign up for my email list!  Insiders always shop first!

These pieces are inspired by the top snail shells.  

There are five top snails that live in the Pacific Northwest coastal waters.  Some of these shells were used as decoration by Indigenous peoples.  

I am happy to introduce my version of ornamentation with top snails!  

If you want to be first to shop for these top snails when they are released in a few weeks, then you need to be on my email list.  Sign up below.  

I am having so much fun designing with Kanna Glass Studio beads!  

Here are a couple of necklaces that are in progress.  

I am calling them Cascade.  These will definitely make a statement!

Things are coming along in the studio these days as I prepare for the first release of the coast to coast collaboration with my friend Jenn.  

The pieces are taking shape and I am adding the beautiful beads.  These ones are inspired by barnacles!  

The new pieces are coming within a few weeks.  Be the first to shop by signing up to my email list below.  

I have been working on these new bronze and glass pieces.  I am having a grand time with matching the right blue bead to the right bronze form.  

They will be ready for release in a few weeks. Don't worry, the wires won't be sticking out when they are done!

I am still working on my coast to coast collaboration pieces.  I made these rings with an idea in my head - one large statement necklace with a mix of my bronze and Kanna Glass beads.  

Now that I am playing around with them (the rings are just out of the kiln and not polished yet), I am not so sure about the one big necklace.  

Maybe, there will be TWO necklaces from these three pieces!  

If you want to be able to shop these new pieces first, then sign up to my email list below.  Release is coming soon!

I am really pleased with how these new pieces for my coast to coast collaboration with Kanna Glass Studio are coming along.  

These pieces came out of the kiln last weekend.  And I thought I would see how they matched up to the lovely ocean coloured beads before I polish them up to their true bronze colours.  

I really love how they are looking so far.  

If you want to have first dibs on these new pieces when they are released, then I recommend you get on my list - Insiders shop first, always.  

Or perhaps on vacation in the Caribbean? Or twisting by the pool?

Either way, the Dominica is one of my favourites and a really fun necklace to wear.
