Miyuki delica beads & Swarovski crystals

My new project has been making jewellery using very small beads known as Delica Miyuki beads. It is very intricate work and time consuming but as you can see the results are well worth the time.

I have added a few photos of the delica beads with the swarovski stones that I have been working on.

This necklace is made with purple and green delica beads, and even smaller beads known as rocailles in a rainbow white to surround the stone, It also has a blue swarovski stone and a purple one. It is priced at £20







This bracelet is made up of silver, black and blue delica beads and 5 swarovski stones. It is priced at £20.

Thank you for looking.

Swarovski crystals & Czech bead colours

A friend of mine, Becky, came up with a very good idea of putting some of the colours of beads I have so people can see what options there are. For example if you have a certain outfit and are struggling to find matching jewellery you can have a look here and maybe find a match and I can design something unique for you.

Here are a few of the czech beads I have.

Here is a selection of some of the swarovski crystals I have. There are 100's more but I have put a selection of colours to give you an idea.

The beginning of the blog


Well I have finally set up a blog page to show my jewellery projects.

I have sold quite a few pieces already with the help of some friends who own a local cafe and let me put a display cabinet in their premises. Unfortunately they were recently broken into and didn't want to take the risk of having my jewellery stolen if they were broken into again so I am now back to square one. However there are a few ideas in the pipe line which I will let you know about.

I intend to try and update this blog as regularly as possible with pictures of my new designs and pieces.

All the pieces posted can be made in different colours, so if you see something you like please don't hesitate to ask any questions.

I have added a few of the most recent projects.
