Hi!  I am the designer and tutor for Jubeadilation. I live with my family in beautiful Peachester, in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. I began running jewellery classes for ArTTable, but soon wanted to offer more designs than they had available. I test out new designs by wearing them myself, and if they receive positive comments I offer them as workshops.

At the workshops I'm always surprised and pleased to see how different each person's jewellery can be. Somehow, although they are all receiving the same instructions, they make something that is uniquely theirs. The interaction at workshops helps to perfect the kits, so I feel comfortable that people will manage them successfully.

I aim to have each workshop or kit introducing a new concept or skill. If you make the kit or attend a workshop you will then be able to apply the new skill to make yet more jewellery, choosing your own beads and producing "wearable art" that is truly unique.

 Sydney Bead and Gem Show 2008

This choker necklace was a finalist in the 2008 Bead and Gem Show competition and was on display in Sydney. It is a slight variation on my Swirl 'n' Twirl kit. The standard kit just uses seed beeds, but you can see I've added a few pearls which has given it added character.

The Swirl 'n' Twirl kit is available at my workshops, where you can choose from a wide range of colours. If you can't make a workshop you can still buy the kit; Just contact me on (07) 5494 9817, or use the contact form. I can email you pictures of colour options.

To celebrate my success this kit is available until 15th December for only $20!

My Czech Fantasy design is a variation of my Knotted Necklace that was published in the Creative Beading Magazine in 2007. It uses Czech Glass beads, and incorporates wire "nuggets" and ribbon, creating a light and delicate  affect. Available as kits or workshops.
