My husband, Bob, found these great drusie quartz beads at a show in Tucson. I've been toying with the idea of monochromatic pieces and this is the first in a series of five.
Other than the quartz focal piece, the remaining beads are Czech glass and Japanese seed beads. This piece has a handmade fine silver fibula (pin back) and rings where a chain or beaded necklace can be attached. The backing is UtraSuede.
I have been creating art all of my life, but only recently have learned to call myself an artist. I now create art and jewelry using beads and fiber. I share my love of beads by teaching bead jewelry-making classes at my daughter Jennifer's store - Stony Creek Bead & Gallery in Ypsilanti, Michigan.
