private reserve: multistrand necklaces
There are many different styles for stringing beads into finished pieces. These are not for sale, but are examples of my work.
This one shows a focal lampworked bead with a choker made of seed beads, woven in peyote stitch into a tube. Mo approved. These will be fun to make in a rainbow of colors.

On the left is a set of multicolored seed beads; coral, turquoise, deep blue, with chips of opal and chunks of coral interspersed. The multistrand necklace has a coral focal bead, and the peyote stitch bracelet has coral buttons. Click to see entire view.

On the right, is a multistrand seed bead necklace in a gradient of browns, interspersed with brown pearls and larger brown faceted glass beads. Click to see the matching earrings. I did not carve the lovely boxwood Buddha bead, the signature on the back might be Japanese.

Lastly, a single strand that has the best of the blue beads I made in 2008 during classes at Glass Expressions, in Burien, WA. The clear and frosty beads are quartz. Also shown are matching earrings.
