New Bracelets made in beads

I just wanted to share some of my latest work, I am so glad I have these beads to work with when I am in need of some quiet time.The red and black is a work in progress, should be done in a day or so and it will also have earrings to match.

I have a new store front at Etsy ( kystorms.etsy.com) , which I am slowly filling in, and I am still working on the bead blog at Sea Cliff Beads so I am trying to burn a whole box of candles at both ends ;-p


I am really hoping for constructive criticism so I know where I am in need of more learning.

If you happen to see something you like, or want in another color, just let me know.







I am so excited because I have finally gotten some real gemstones to work with, Aquamarine, Garnet ( red) and Cherry Quartz. I can not wait to work them into something and when I do I will make sure to post here.

Are you a crafty person?

If you do, I would love to hear about what you make, how you sell it ( if you do) and where you place your items.

I am looking into Etsy, it has some awesome bead artists, such as Triz. She is a wonderful artist, the things she makes are so beautiful, I wish I were up to her level of artistic talent. There are many bead artists on Etsy, many of whom I have already placed in my favorites at Etsy. Triz is actually a real inspiration to me because she always has a design worked from the heart, you will never find any other bead art that looks like what she does.

Here is Trizs Etsy page ~

and here is just a few of her designs ( my favorite of all she has :-)



















And I love the earrings as well, they are like happy stars of color!

















Please remember that if your interested in Triz work, that you can also click the photographs I have linked to and they will take you right to her Etsy pages!


I have also found that there are many bead artists who use Flickr as the place to show off their talent, here are a few groups to check out ~

Introducing my other website ~ Sea Cliff Beads

I wanted to have this be the official launch of my Gemstone and Beaded Jewelry Sites and do it with a bit more fan fare, but finding the right themes for each site has been hard along with finding the best plugin for WP for my photographs.

Please keep checking back on each website if you are interested in either Gemstones or Beaded Earrings.
