New work station. The lovely Japanese work chest was infested with termites or wood bugs, which ever, so I had to replace my space with plastic and my table from Virginia. Hope we've seen the last of the bugs or my house is in trouble.

Shell pendent inlay picked up Ojo Calenté NM made by Janie Aquilar from the Santo Domingo pueblo. So I set it off with shells, fresh water pearls, funky glass beads, second strand is spiny oyster, and turquoise. Clasp is sterling silver.

Contemporary Jewelry Handmade in Northern California from the Highest Quality Natural MaterialsI like using strong beading wire, mixed metals, leather, I love turquoise, shells, various gemstones, crystals, bone, ceramic, acrylic beads and good strong crimp beads are a must.There are so many product options out there.I decided to limit my products to mostly North American regions and Mexico. I remember when I first started I purchased some Chinese turquoise and wasn’t too pleased. Then I learned a few of my vendors were selling me Chinese stuff too. There are some quality gemstones mined in China. However knowing the distance traveled made me reconsider and stay within our continent. It’s a big one anyway. Jewelry making helps me relax, I find it therapeutic. My back and fingers get sore but it’s all worth it when I see someone wearing something I’ve made. Darn right Joyous!
