My inspiration comes from history (some are decidedly Egyptian or Victorian in style), from nature (my waterfall series, various flowers and animals), but mostly from my imagination.
I have been crocheting and knitting since the age of eight, but never thought I could do it with wire. Several years ago, the search for large, lightweight earrings to wear with a costume brought me to try crocheting with some 28g wire I had available for other things. I haven’t stopped since! Now that I’m playing with fused glass beads, I have a feeling I won’t stop doing that either.

I am also happy to create something unique to fit a customer’s specific needs. I have made fish, dragonflies, butterflies, and at least one pig to order, and love to take on new assignments.
