I immediately liked Melanie. She was so down-to-earth, funny and sweet, very genuine and just completely charming. Over the years we kept in touch and I kept watching her skills grow and her work change. I loved the different forms and patterns that she created. It makes me happy to make jewelry out of her beads because they're so wonderful, and also because I have a sentimental attachment to them.
Recently I was looking for a pendant to use in a design, and I realized just how many pieces I have of hers. I decided that I should share! I put together a set of pieces that represent many different stages of her beadmaking. There are over 25 beads and components in this set:

Love the beads, I am glad I found you on Facebook. Can't wait to dwell further into your inventory. Love Melanie's beads also. I have done some ceramics in the past and this is a good idea to get back into ceramics once again and see what I can stir up. Thanks =)
