Distinctive Style & Design

I design and make rosaries and jewelry. Check here for new designs and ideas, sometimes before they make it to my web site. For more of my products see my web site: www.RosariesAndJewelryByLaura.com

Location: Aurora, Colorado, United States

I have been making rosaries for about 29 years, and jewelry for almost as long. I enjoy the whole process from beginning to end, and can usually be found to have a pair of pliers, wire and maybe some kind of beads in my hands, except possibly when I'm sleeping.

Fun with CZ's!


I made this necklace and earring set for a friend of mine to wear in a very special ceremony. The drops and small beads on top of them are all cubic zirconia, and the double strand of the necklace is out of Swarovski crystal. She wanted the earrings to be long and full, and both of them to have lots of sparkle. I think this fits the bill. I'm taking it to her this afternoon to make sure that it works with the dress she has in mind, and is the right length. I can't wait to get her reaction! I really enjoy taking the description that someone gives me and trying to make it come to life.

Steps

My friend Shannon started on her Journey today with surgery. She is making the Journey of hope on the way to recovering from uterine cancer. She will be in the hospital for 5 days, and then continue her steps along the way at home. I'm not sure yet what they will be, it depends on what they find during surgery. I'm making the Journey bracelets and key chains she wanted for her supporters so they will be ready for when she wants them. Good Luck Shannon!! My thoughts and prayers are with you! Hope to see you back soon!
