Designs by T Sargent
Butterfly Wings
This is my interpretation of a piece I saw by Maggie Dykzeul in Jewelry Affaire magazine several years ago.
Components: The butterfly filigree connectors are Vintaj and the beautiful focal beads are Czech glass that I bought from LB.
Boho 1
I love boho and tribal jewelry and this is my interpretation of those styles.
Components: The focal pendant is Vitaj brass from LB and the beads are mostly Czech glass.
Winter Greens
This is the first piece of mine that I've shared on Lima Beads. Actually it's two different necklaces, but look good together.
Components: I love the bead colors and textures. they're green garnet wheels and Czech glass, both from LB.
