Milagro Mexican charms of a head, said to heal all the illnesses of the head and mind...
Objects I found at the flea market, a seahorse and some medals,
These are not made with found objects, these are labradorite and freshwater pearls.
These are indeed found objects, one is a leaf made of wood, and the other is a mysterious bone.
Hardware and a mother of pearl button with glass crystal beads.
Milagro charms and the leg bones of a rat. I love the faceted freshwater pearls.
Mexican milagros of a stabbed heart, known for the powers to heal a broken heart and other emotional wounds.
Religious earrings, Mexican style.
These ones are retro 80s romantic, they are vintage mirror beads.
I've started a new series. A continuation of my previous "Alchemy", this series will integrate antique tintypes, crystals, brass filigree and vintage illustrations.
Some more of my series with the multi-strand necklaces with soldered filigree centerpieces.
I saw paper earrings like this ones in the winter 2010 issue of Belle Armoire Jewelry, the concept is by Shannon LeVart. But I decided to make them with illustrations from a book from 1905 I got at a vintage store. They are covered with Ice resin, and in the back they have many coats of gel medium, so they are waterproof.
This bezel pendants are made with brass sheet and copper pipe, soldered together and then aged with a dark patina. The image in the center is an illustration from a book from 1905 (the book is very damaged so I don't mind cutting it), the image is preserved in resin. I used Ice Resin, a two part resin that is jewelry grade and non-toxic.
This one features an antique German doll's head from 1890, hand painted. I made a tassel of Picasso jasper. The ribbon is sari silk in a beautiful redish purple.
This one is a multi strand necklace I made using vintage faux pearls. It has tons of bling.
An avant-garde pair of finger earrings made out of .999 silver, these are strange and unique, I love how they turned out.
Two pairs using milagro stabbed hearts from Mexico, I put a light black patina in these so that they would look oxidized. 
Milagro hand and leg from Mexico, also patinated. The top bead is a pyrite and the ribbon is fair trade sari silk from Nepal.
These are small hearts with eyes on them. I designed these in polymer clay first. I like the results, but I think I am going to polish the design so that it looks less rustic.
Brass filigree soldered in brass sheet and then aged with a black patina. The necklace are multi-strand bead strings.
An eclectic pair of mother of pearl button earrings
And a vintage assemblage piece with a star flower.
