| This was my very first attempt at creating a freeform peyote. |
Anyone who is into beading knows just how addictive this can be. I get great joy creating new items and coming up with solutions to finish a piece in a very unique way.
About Me
- Awe Inspired Jewelry by Monica
- Since I was a child I have delved in many forms of art. From designing clothing patterns in elementary school, sewing and actually wearing them! Beyond basic art(jewelery), to Oxy-Acetylene Art welding in my teens, woodworking and household repairs utilizing my creativity. For over 8 years I have been creating jewelry for sale. I am a self-taught artist, one who would rather break the rules; I guess that is why I really enjoy doing abstract designs, ie. Freeform Peyote. Utilizing different sizes, shapes, types and colors of beads really intrigue me. My keen sense of color comes from doing puzzles at an early age with my family. Beaders often consult me for my color coordination. I enjoy teaching any of the basics stitches to new and seasoned jewelry makers. When a client gives me the "ingredients" they want for me to create an item for them, it is the greatest compliment. My first such request was from a bride-to-be, who told me, “Just do what you do, I love it, all”. Hopefully each of my creations have a bit of ‘Me and my joy’ inside every piece. I welcome your comments.
