custom designs by lauren

This month's featured piece is the Sea Blue linked necklace, a truly unique, one-of-a-kind piece!  I saw these blue shell link beads at a local craft store
and bought all of the strands they had available!  (I then noticed that they never re-stocked...did they figure I would come back and buy them all again?) 
It took me a while to decide what to do with these, and one day I randomly started connecting them with jump rings and ended up with this necklace. 
It's great to wear and super light, so it won't bring you-or your outfit-down. 

Priced at $15.00, this is definitely a unique piece and one which you will wear as you wait for the warmer temperatures of spring and summer!

For additional photos of the piece or if you are interested in purchasing, please let me know!  Look for a new featured piece on March 15th.

Will I keep my mind made up on a site design for more than a week this time?  We'll see!  

I started this site as a way to display the custom jewelry pieces I have made for myself and others over the years.  My love of designing stemmed mainly from a frustration of pieces to complement my outfits and personal style-I live by the KISS rule-and my flair for the creative seemed to be the answer.  I love to share my pieces with family and friends, and look forward to branching out throughout the country (and perhaps world!) to spread the love of simple yet striking jewelry as the ultimate accessory.

The style I design on tends to be simplistic in nature and the ability to be paired with numerous looks.  You'll notice many colors in earth or natural-tones, and as often as possible I utilize the beauty of natural beads and gemstones in my designs. 

On this site you will see examples of work I currently have for sale, as well as past pieces which were made specifically for me, custom-made for friends or customers as well as past pieces which have sold and were one-time-only items.  I also will provide links to other jewelry and beaded-related sites, the outlook for the coming season, and more!  Online ordering is also available with free shipping for all bought items.

Thanks to all for the support, and keep forwarding the site to friends and family!
