Jewellery by Joanne
Joanne has been an avid beader for over 30 years and started
making jewellery after participating in a workshop on quill and seed bead
earrings. This inspired her to learn
more about beaded jewelry and, using how-to-bead books, was soon was making
necklaces, earrings and bracelets.
The
first time she attended BeadExpo in Santa Fe, she was blown away by the sheer
volume and variety of gemstone, pearl and designer beads. She also discovered the benefits of on-line
shopping, which makes the high-end supplies that she uses in her jewellery
readily available.
Joanne retired from her
full-time job in education two years ago and recently made her hobby a full-time job. One of the things she enjoys
most about designing and making jewellery is the excitement and joy of seeing the
pieces come together, resulting in a wearable piece of art. Joanne says her jewellery is for that woman
that truly enjoys a lot of bling!!
