Aga's beautiful designs inspired me.

I am proud of how the piece flows and the warmth of the colors used.

Practice, practice, practice and buy good tools. Watching Aga work made me realize I needed to update my equipment. Having better quality tools really makes a difference!

Thanks. Every time I look ar a piece I have made, I see things I would change. I guess that is good, but it does make me crazy from time to time. I love making jewelry though. I wish my skills would take me further! But, I enjoy the process and look forward to stretching my skills and techniques. I am hopeful that Craftsy will enable all of us to grow and gain new skills. Thank you for your praise. I sincerely appreciate it.
