Beautiful Handmade Jewelry -- One of a Kind Just Like You

Anklets, also known as ankle bracelets, are back in style (if they ever left), easy to wear, elegant or whimsical, subtle to bold, always fun. My handmade beaded anklets are perfect gifts for almost all occasions. Say "thanks" to your bridesmaids or congratulate your graduate. Or tell a friend how much you think of her by giving her a stylish artist designed and made anklet. It's your sister's birthday? Get her one of my limited edition or custom-made anklets. These are perfect for the discerning woman whose budget is tight but whose taste is fine. This summer get one for yourself!

My anklets are unlike any you have ever encountered before. example of weave Not strung, but woven, they can be worn for both formal and casual occasions. The weave you see here is called right angle weave. Each bead is at right angles (90 degrees) to every other bead as a look at this close-up of the weave will show. It is a very sturdy weave with a delightfully delicate look. Intersperesed throughout the basic weave are three special beads. Most often I like to use colorful Swarovski faceted bicones, some with special finishes. Other times I use a variety of interesting beads including other faceted beads as well as cloisonné and the occasional semi-precious gemstone bead.

Choosing the correct size of an anklet requires a bit more thought than choosing a bracelet size. For one thing, anklets don't slide up and down the leg as bracelets do the arm. As well, the drape of an anklet varies with each person. Some prefer a drape above the ankle, almost fitting tightly, while other prefer a looser drape either at or, more commonly, below the ankle bone. I, myself, prefer a looser drape just below the bone. this looks good both barefoot and over socks or stockings. My ankle is about seven and three-quarters inches in circumference and I wear a nine inch (or so, I don't mind a bit smaller or larger) anklet. My advice for measuring and choosing yours is to take a string and tie it around your ankle with the same drape as you'd like your anklet. Cut the string (do not untie it) and then measure the length of the string. Simply state your size in your order (see below) and I will custom create the anklet just for you.

I can also custom design and create orders in other color combinations at your request. Please contact me to discuss your preferences.

All anklets, even custom ordered, are only $20.00 each.
