Meaghan's Horse


This piece was made for a friend who is all about horses. It was inspired by a design she came up with for a school project, and I added a couple of things.

Western Earrings


These earrings were made at the request of my cousin's husband. He asked if I could make cowboy hats or boots. Here's the result...

The hats are based on the way our grandfather taught me to draw a cowboy hat, when I was a little girl.

Starfish


The starfish came about because my cousin asked if I could make one...

Apparently I could...

Earrings


This is not a great photo, but gives the general idea of some of the earrings I've made.

Small Beach Glass Dragonfly


This dragonfly is a sample of the smaller ones I've made. It measures approx. 5.5" x 4.5"

I made it for my American cousin and so I used a U.S. quarter to show scale.

$30.

Large Beach Glass Dragonfly



This dragonfly measures approx. 15" x 13". It is made from re-purposed copper and genuine ocean-tumbled beach glass. It took two hours to make the dragonfly and many more hours to attach the glass. It could be hung in a window or out in the garden.

$150.

Beach Glass Earrings


These are just a few samples of the beach glass earrings that I make. I have been doing them for a while now and these actual items have been sold. I'm happy to make jewellery for people from their own beach glass as well.








Dragonfly Earrings




It took a very long time to come up with this design. The pendant came first, then the larger earrings, then the smaller ones.
