Thanks Keith, I agree, and they are two of the most unique people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Oh, these are beautiful. I think the little charm that says "Made with love" is just perfect! That sentiment certainly shows in their combined artistry.
All of them are admirable but that second one gives me chills each time I look at it.
You indicated: "They are also RTH members." What are their call names so we can express personal appreciation for their work? I found "frederiksmith" in the directory but his last log-in date was Oct 2, 2006.
Thanks so much for posting these photos. Please encourage the artists to review what is being said about their work.

Absolutely gorgeous! Looks like some KD posted a few weeks back. My wife and I are aspiring to make such beautiful pieces. With you guys helping it shall be accomplished! john ps, we have the same charms, my wife Tammy makes alot of beaded jewelry but her signature stuff is memory beads made with flowers from say a wedding or a funeral. That's right! Everybody loves them and they are such a neat way to memorialize someone.

Excellent pieces of jewelry and they make an excellent team. So how come if they're RTH members, I've never seen a frederiksmith logged on? Hmmm?

Hi KD, I think most of their beads and findings come from Fire Mountain Gems. My friend Carol, that makes these beautiful necklaces, is struggling with MS but she has the courage of a lion. You may not see her posting anything, she has tried but it didn't work, I do think she reads some of the threads though. Her husband, Patrick, bought himself a flatlap, all of his cabs are cut on a flatlap. He taught himself how to make them so that Carol would have center pieces for her necklaces.

Hi Jamie, Wow, tell your friends they are artisans, I love the way they combine the colors of beads with the center cabochon. Truely inpirational! My favorites, if I had to pick any are the first two, but they are all very pretty. Mary

Okay, now you are making me really, REALLY jealous. They are all so pretty and so unique. I think my favorites are the ones you also posted as outdoor pix.
Thanks for sharing the beauty.

Nice work frederiksmith! It's nice when two people work on artistic things. I like the second from the bottom one a lot (lace agate) but all are wonderful. The color combinations are really well done. Steve
