Artist: Air and Earth Designs I've always loved beads and color - I first got into beading when I worked for a fabric store during my college years. Color is a major inspiration of mine - I adore the way color plays with light. I bought lampwork for my own jewelry creations for awhile, and just fell in love with the medium.
My beads are made from Effetre (Moretti), Vetrofond (Murano), Bullseye, Czech, and/or Lauscha glass, then annealed in a digitally controlled kiln for lasting durability.

 | Artist: Alisha Louise I have always loved jewelry in nearly every form and began making my own designs over 10 years ago. Back then, it was beads, knots and wire only. After an unexpected lay-off in 2004, I printed up some business cards and hit the shops to see if I could turn my hobby into a budding business.
I am drawn to many different mediums and am always employing new methods in my jewelry designs. I believe jewelry should be an enhancer to personal style, that extra spark that allows us to stand out.

 | Artist: Ann Dillon Design, color, and texture have always been major components of my life in one form or another. I grew up in my parents' freelance home furnishings design studio. I majored in Fine Arts at UNH.
I've always had to create something. For a long time, that took the form of weaving - mostly one-of-a-kind wearables. Since 1993, I've been working with polymer clay, making mainly beads and jewelry. A few years back, smaller beads began to nudge at me and want to be part of the mix.

 | Artist: Beth Rosengard All of my jewelry is designed by me and hand-fabricated by me from milled raw materials such as gold sheet, wire, tubing and solder. For some of my pieces, I also fabricate the findings (necklace clasps, for instance); in many cases, however, I use purchased findings (e.g., pin backs and earring posts). The chains and cables for my pendants are manufactured; necklaces of beads and pearls, I string myself.

 | Artist: Bonnie L. Blandford Jeweler My work has gone through a lot of changes over the last 28 years. I started with all sterling silver, lots of rings and then added some gold. I then switched over to all gold, concentrating on rings with asymmetrical stones, and a large line of earrings.
I was spending more time working in wax than metal. I went back to being a metalsmith. I’ve taken what I learned there and from subsequent classes from other people, and totally changed my work. It’s much harder, but since 1988, I’ve concentrated on my mixed metal jewelry, which I really love. It’s the most satisfying!

Artist: Booty Boutique I produce and sell original, one-of-a-kind and limited edition designed belt buckles. Metal belt buckle blanks are pre-made, as are all the "innards". The blanks are embellished with the innards consisting of a huge variety of beads, rhinestones, letters, pins/buttons, findings and found objects. These materials range from being made of plastic and acrylic to glass and precious stones. I use all types of glues as resins as adhesives.

 | Artist: Brandi Brown Designs In the spring of 2002, I designed my first necklace after searching and searching for the perfect color combination and style to go with an outfit. I experimented with some beads and colors and created a necklace that was perfect. I continued to operate that way until the winter of 2005 when I left my full time job and started my own business, Brandi Brown Designs.
