A Sampling of My Work

Market Bags - made with bamboo, wooden or acrylic handles, and jute or acrylic cord so they will stretch to hold produce, diapers bag items, beach/ pool items, or whatever you need!  I've recently started making Market Bags out of those annoying plastic grocery bags.  So, they're bag bags!

 Plant Hangers - made with natural jute, hemp, acrylic, wool and cotton cord, I add ceramic, wooden, and clay beads to bring out the style of each piece.  Each plant hanger is designed to hold small to large plants, and can be hung indoors or outdoors for years to come!  

Pet Leashes - designed for durability and strength, but beautiful to behold, these leashes are guaranteed to last a lifetime.  Again, each one is different, but all are sturdy enough for the strongest of pets.

Head Bands - brightly colored acrylic cord knotted around a metal band or stretchy round band makes a beautiful head band.  These bands will not slide in your hair, nor will they pinch behind your ears.  And you can find them in every color of the rainbow!

Macramé and Coaster Wreathes - created as a welcoming door hanger, or a wall hanging for game rooms, nurseries, etc., these wreathes will definitely become conversation starters!  Each wreath is unique, even if the coasters or cord used are similar.

Dream Catchers - created in true Native American style from hemp, leather or jute covered metal rings, colorful dream catchers hang above your sleeping area to collect the bad dreams, and let the good dreams through.

Bracelets and Anklets - bangle bracelets and macramé 'friendship' bracelets and anklets make wonderful tokens of friendship and commitment.  For the 'friendship' bracelets, I can make matching pieces for those who want to share something special with that special someone.

Earrings - made with metal findings, every variety of beads (especially glass), and hemp and acrylic cord, my earrings are unique and whimsical, and add splashes of color to all who wear them.

Braided Scarves/ Belts - yarn, lots of yarn in a multitude of colors make my scarves/ belts festive and beautiful with any outfit.

 The personality of each item

It all begins with the cord.  Whether it be jute, hemp, acrylic, nylon, wool, or cotton, it all begins with the cord.  From the time I measure and cut the cord, the design and shape of an item begins to form.  As I knot, add beads, Twist and Tie, the art from the item emerges.  Each piece I create is unique in design, and has it's own personality.
