I have spent most of my life appreciating the art of others, never thinking that one day I could contribute to that elusive world. Over the years, I have decorated my homes, and enjoyed the use of color. One day I passed a bead store and was drawn in to see all the shapes and colors. I selected some beads, took a lesson on stringing, shopped for more beads I thought would look good with the ones I had, and assembled my first necklace. That was five years ago, and I haven't looked back since. Each piece I make is a work of art to me, and a labor of love. I hope you enjoy looking!
When I'm not beading, I'm a full-time mom. My two boys Zack and Jake will always be my masterpiece. Zack is a broadcast news reporter with ABC in Toledo, Ohio. Jake is finishing his studies at the University of Colorado. My husband of nearly thirty years, Larry, has supported me all the way through this new adventure in my life. My thanks to all three of these boys who I could not live without.
