Handmade Store: Clinkscales Arts

I wouldn't know what to do if I wasn't creating with my hands. It's in my blood and always has been. I love to make things for people that love them. To have someone wear one of my creations is the ultimate compliment.

My jewelry is based on my love of texture and color. I strive to keep my designs fresh. I am happy to work with you to create the piece of jewelry that speaks to your heart...the piece that makes you feel special when you wear it.

I am drawn to the tiny intricacies of beadweaving; to take a pile of beads and a needle and thread and weave those until they are an adornment is very rewarding. Each bead joins the others, one by one in a meditative process.

I also love to combine the colors and textures of beads to create goddess dolls. Each of my dolls speaks to me as she is being created. She guides me until she is complete and ready for her journey. Each doll carries a message of the goddess that lies within us all. Listen to her, she is wise.

Fibers and fabrics also feed my creativity. Sometimes, I just have to sew! I love dainty prints on little quilts; fuzzy crochet animals that proudly wear their best calico dresses.

Pencils and paint will always be in my blood. I may stray away from my first true love, but I'm never very far. It calls me back time and again. I keep most of my art, but on rare occasion, I may offer a piece for sale.
