Bead and Board

Handmade wooden signs, pendants, ornaments, crocheted necklaces and handmade beads.

I specialize in handmade wooden signs and jewelry including my hand-crocheted cord necklaces and bracelets.

My Mom, Maternal Grandmother, and Paternal Grandmother (who have all since passed) were avid crocheters. I grew up in a house full of crafting. My Mom and her Mom had a stand at our local farmer’s market. I’d be there helping them set up EARLY each Saturday morning. They sold crocheted afghans, towels with crocheted tops on them, crocheted wash cloths (it was the 80’s!) and Christmas ornaments. My Paternal Grandmother crocheted doilies. They’re everywhere in all my family’s homes. I guess you could say crocheting is in my blood. That’s why when I started making these necklaces, I was ELATED to find my Mom’s old crochet hooks. Each of these designs are made with her old hooks. That’s love, transcending generations.
