Cereice Designs

When I moved to the Washington DC area this past summer, I discovered that there were several beading business, books, blogs, etc... that had the same name as my small business, Beadalicious. Hence the recent name change to Cereice Designs. Cereice Designs creates unusual, classic, wearable, sometimes trendy, and always beautiful jewelry. I use semi-precious gemstones, Swarovski crystal, freshwater pearls, wooden beads, and Sterling silver and 14 kt Gold-filled metals to handcraft something special and unique for you. Custom orders and bridal party designs are fun and challenging to my creativity and I love to collaborate on pieces to meet my clients' wants and needs. Much of my jewelry has an ethnic touch and is appealing to many tastes. Visit www.cereicedesigns.etsy.com to see which pretty baubles and beads call your name!

Yankee Girl Designs
Yankee Girl Designs logo:

I'm a 20-something Children's Librarian (by day) and proud to admit that my hand up a puppet's butt is a beautiful thing. Seriously my puppet shows are Oscar worthy! I can leap the book stacks in a single bound. The dewey decimal system rocks my world and yes I do know where Waldo is! A few things I've said during a day of work: "Max Put Your Pants On, There Are No Naked Butts At Storytime!" "Hannah We Don't Lick The Books!" "No We Do Not Have Any Actual Photographs of Jesus, Ma'am" I've also uttered "On Your Booties Cuties" and "Shhhhh!" More times than I'd like to admit. Yankee Girl Designs started as a way to help me relax after a day of wrangling screaming meatloafs and it's evolved into so much more. I love working with beads and stones and ending up with something kick-ass to wear. Mixing and matching different stones has become a passion of mine. I'm hoping that this buisness really takes off, my dream is to be a Stay-At-Home-Mom to my own weasels, once my hubby and I breed :)

Craft Leftovers
Craft Leftovers logo:

The Craft Leftovers project was my answer to the question, "What does one do with all the leftover bits after a project is finished?" Although I am driven to create, I am not driven to create more waste. I am setting out to write patterns specifically for those leftovers and to encourage everyone I meet to use up their unwanted bits. Please join my mission not just to de-stash, but also to find fabulous uses for materials others have found to be without purpose.
