Michelle Waldren Beads


I am a lampwork Artist in that I create glass beads and other various items, such as paperweights, and fan pulls, on a lampwork torch. Lampworking is like glassblowing on a smaller scale. I use Italian glass rods (Morretti)because of the beautiful range in color that they carry. All my work is fully annealed in a kiln, so that it is hardened and durable. I create all the fine details in all my work.

Sam VanBibber


What is Steam Punk Jewelry? It gets its popularity from a growing resistance to corporate modernization, the mass commercialization of virtually everything, coupled with the surge of nostalgia for all things vintage and antique.
All jewelry is hand assembled, one of a kind and created by me and is 99% re-purposed or recycled found pieces,Broken unrepairable vintage jewelry,wind up watches, gears and other found objects that were considered "junk" and ready to be tossed away. I have rescued them and made beautiful Art pieces to be worn and cherished.
