  SOME OF MY FAVORITE PLACES

 

Just a little of my jewelry philosophy...and some wonderful links to please the eye---My current love is working with artisan designed lampwork beads, because they are individual, intricate and ever evolving.  When you design a piece of jewelry with lampwork it is an original, one of a kind labor of love.   Working in this media is a wonderful outlet for my creativity and there is so much to learn that I will be busy for a good while!

A special thanks goes to the wonderful lampwork artisans who inspire my mind and capture my fancy.  Also special thanks to Kendra and her family for sharing their bountious knowledge of jewelry making.  Thanks to my mother for her love of beauty and encouragement each and every day.  And last but not least thank you to my precious family for supporting, encouraging and loving me through every new whim, flight of fancy, project and obsession along the way!

 What could be more delightful than "playing" with wonderful lampwork artists beads all day and putting them into beautiful things towear and enjoy!  Please, feel free to email me with any inquiries rspv@aol.com

 Thank you for stopping by--I'd love to hear from you!   

Some of the lampwork artists beads I use in my jewelry designs include: Jena Fulcher,Melanie Egan, Julie Wong, Dawn White, Gayle Hood, Holly Kempson, Catherine Howard, Donna Mehnert, Andrea Venschott, Suzanne Booth, Corina Tettinger, Sherry Bellamy, Carolyn Driver, Lily Dickson, Alicia Abla, Jennifer Gurganus, Kimberly Lynn, Donna Felkner, Kaye Husko, Robyn Knapp, Gina Beardsley, Manuela Wutschke, Melanie Moertel, Donna Millard,and more....deliciously divine lampwork to inspire my creative muse!
