About Me

Hi! My name is Jen and I'm the resident glass addict in my house!  I started making jewelry in August 2003.  In February 2004 I came across Lezlie Bellanger's beautiful lampwork beads and I fell in love with glass beads.  In March 2005 I bought a Hot Head torch, a few glass rods, a package of mandrels & a bottle of bead release and started my journey of glass beadmaking.  I have been addicted to melting glass since.

I currently reside outside of Kansas City, MO with my two beautiful daughters, Emily & Josie.

I am a proud member of the International Society of Glass Beadmakers

In July 2006, I had the opportunity to be a teaching assistant at the ISGB Gathering in Kansas City, MO for Margaret Zinser (Shaping, Encasing & Color) and Stephanie Sersich & Dustin Tabor (Expanding your Beadmaking Repertoire).
