I am a stay-at-home Mom to 4 great kids. I have been married to my sweetheart Chris for 14 years now, and can’t imagine my life without him or the kids. I am very lucky that my family is so supportive of me and my dreams. They have cheered me on as I started my own line of Wee Gems Designs. I love to create lampwork glass beads and jewelry. I have been designing since 2002 and have enjoyed the journey it has taken me on. I create each of my lampwork beads using Italian and American glass one at a time in my home studio. I then get to create pieces of jewelry with them paired with the finest materials I can get my hands on from Bali silver, freshwater pearls, sterling silver, and Austrian crystals. I think the best part of my business is the friends I have been able to meet from all over the world.
