My passion for jewelry stemmed from the few coral beads that my mother gave me. Not wanting to keep them out of sight and to be forgotten in a dusty drawer, I decided instead to make them into a bracelet. I chose to make them into something I could wear, so I would feel my mother with me all the time.
Soon after, the little coral bracelet led to many more, then to necklaces and tasbihs (rosaries) using beads and stones I had collected over the years or from parts of unused jewelry I already had. The more I made the more inspired I became. The encouragement from friends and family gave me the motivation to share with others.
So, I kept going with this little hobby of mine and it certainly keeps me inspired and happy every day. With that, I hope this one of a kind creation brings a little bit of color, beauty and joy into your lives as well.
