September 2011 Bead Trends

A big thank you goes out to Tatia Meyer for the privilege of being Bead Trends' Featured Designer in this month's issue: 


I was asked to send enough pieces of jewelry to fill approximately 10 pages, which, it turns out, is a tremendous amount of jewelry - whew!  I tried to push myself in the design and construction of these pieces, and I was really pleased with the outcome.

The first set is called "Wind and Waves", 
and features a beautiful bead and pendant set from Yolanda's Clay:


The second set is called "Caged", and features gorgeous slider rings from Beads of Passion:


The third set is called "Into the Fire", and features stunning lampwork beads from Blue Seraphim:




The fourth set is called "Endless River", 
and features lovely lampwork beads from 
 and Firebabies
:




There are many more fabulous designers in this issue, including my friend, Holly Westfall of SilverRose Designs, who has her first published piece of jewelry - yea!  So pick up a copy and enjoy some eye candy!

Again, thank you so much Bead Trends for the fabulous photography and amazing opportunity!
