The Coral Collection

The Coral Domes are definitely a favourite of mine to create and are a labour of love. Each one takes an average of 50 hours to make.

They all contain glass seed beads and other shaped glass beads. Many of the beads are reclaimed from pre loved jewellery. Some contain semi precious stones or freshwater pearls. Each bead is sewn or wired through twice to secure it in place and to create the coral like shapes. Some have embroidered coral like textures. Sequins and bugle beads are perfect for creating branch corals in which a seed bead seahorse nestles down and lives happily under the glass dome that encloses the entire piece.

The Coral Cluster Abalone Shells are so tactile. You just want to cradle them in your hand. Little jewels to enjoy and collect. Each one takes an average of 4 hours to make.

They all contain glass seed beads and other shaped glass beads. Some contain semi precious stones or freshwater pearls. Each bead is sewn or wired through twice to secure it in place and to be able to create the coral like shapes. Some have embroidered coral like textures.

The Hoop Collection are based on birthstones. They are a perfect gift for a new born baby or significant birthday.

They all contain glass seed beads and other shaped glass beads. Some contain semi precious stones or freshwater pearls.

These hoops take up to 8 hours to complete as each bead is sewn or wired through twice to secure it in place and to be able to create the coral like shapes.
