Meet the Artist
I've had a passion for colored glass and vintage jewelry for over 30 years. My journey began with an Introduction to Hot Glass class, where I learned lampwork bead making and glass fusing. Since then, I've loved creating original glass beads and one-of-a-kind designs. I also enjoy thrifting vintage jewelry, which I enhance with semi-precious stones, pearls, and my own glass beads.
Whether you're drawn to a colorful lampwork bead or a reimagined vintage statement piece, my hope is you’ll find something that resonates with your own style and story! Many of my one-of-a-kind creations are available only at in-person shows, so please reach out if you're looking for something special or want to book a show to see my full collection!
Welcome to my studio!
Lampwork is a technique used to create intricate glass beads and other objects by melting glass rods with a flame. The process involves using a torch or “lamp” to heat the glass until it becomes molten, allowing me to shape it by hand or with tools. Once shaped, the glass is cooled in a controlled manner in a kiln to ensure durability.
This is my studio that my husband and I built. It’s where I get to melt glass and create my one of kind designs!
