Jewelry Designs
More than 100 of my original designs have appeared in Beading Daily, Beadwork, BeadStyle, Bead-a-Day Calendar, Bead Trends, Creative Jewelry, Easy Wire, Jewelry Gifts for the Holidays, Simply Beads, Step by Step Beads, and Stringing. In addition to design work for magazines, I write project instructions, how-to articles, artist interviews, book reviews, and product reviews. I also create original projects for manufacturers/vendors and do technical editing/reviews for publishers as a freelancer.
