Welcome
and thank you for visiting our wonderful Gallery!

I was born and reared in Montana
I moved from Bigfork, Montana to Sandpoint
in August 2008 to be closer to family. 



My adult children live in Washington and Colorado.
 
 

I learned the art of stained glass in 1981. 
For years, I have made all forms of stained glass including but not limited to walls, table tops,
glass stepping stones, windows, garden art and jewelry. 
I shared my passion with others by teaching
in my private shop
and through Flathead Community College
from 86 – 2009, until I relocated to Sandpoint, Idaho.
   

     

Several years ago, while watching
my daughter hand craft silver jewelry,
I became enamored with this art and the idea
of combining the jewelry with my glass.
 
I have worked with the
Bigfork Artists Gallery & Co-op since 2000.
My jewelry is being displayed for sale in several shops in Bigfork, Montana, Durango, Colorado
and now Sandpoint, Idaho!


I take pride in the fact that all of my ear wires, hooks and fasteners for my earrings and necklaces
are handmade from sterling silver wire. 
I use sterling silver wire, crystal and glass beads.
I love working with beads, glass, wire and being surprised with what I end up with.
  



I also make crocheted jewelry & beaded utensils/mini ware/servers. 

Whimsey Ware




I call my painted pottery "Whimsy Ware" -
it is a different way for me to keep my mind active & learning, very fun & totally different
than anything I have ever done.

 

I have to keep busy - there is always something else to make, that I can add to my wares.

  

    

 

  Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share part of myself with you.
