Fireweed After Fire

The pieces I make always have symbolic meaning to meaning.  When I moved to Alaska, I adored the beautiful Fireweed flowers, but became even more intrigued when I learned why they are called fireweed.  In many areas across America, fireweed is the first plant to grow in after an area has been wiped out by fire.

 

They tiny orange seed beads represent the fire, the grey freshwater pearls represent the smoke, and the pink are, of course, the fireweed. This piece can be worn as one long strand, doubled or tripled as a necklace, or as a six layer bracelet.

Gathering Inspiration

I gather inspiriation from a variety of places, nature, art pieces, and sometimes just from the stones and jewelry making materials themselves.
