LauraAnne Designs is a culmination of many dreams that have developed over the years. My love for art began at an early age with my family, and I continue to draw my inspiration from them. Many times over the years I would often paint, or design art  late into the night while listening to Vivaldi or Tchaikovsky, allowing the music to touch my heart and reverberate into my work. This led me to becoming a member of an art guild in Pennsylvania where I received numerous awards for my oil and acrylic paintings as well as ribbons in the State Fair of Pennsylvania. After moving to California I started expanding in other mediums:

Handmade Beaded Jewelry Designs is a Wearable Art Jewerly & I could see this as being a way to show personal expression, & knowing that it is handmade & one-of-a-kind allows you to feel as unique as the piece I would designed.  I still had this need deep inside me to create a new kind of art to express it in something you could wear - a  "Handmade Beaded Art Jewelry Necklaces &  Bracelets"  piece  & this new medium would be different for me and I was ready to explore a new way to create jewelry designs.  I also am on ETSY.com.  I am in galleries and shops and doing Trunk Shows.  the opportunities grow all the time.  It is all about passion and comittment to my desiging!  Enjoy my site.

One day my daughter & I found an exquisite bead shop & decided we could make necklaces together. Walking around the shop I was impressed with the many different kinds of glass, crystal, & semiprecious stones that were available, While designing my necklace I felt inspired & remember thinking how much my sisters, family, &  friends all love jewelry  & my vision of  LauraAnne Designs was born. I knew I wanted to create Fabulous Handmade Beaded Art Jewerly Designs  that is a "Wearable Art" that would be enjoyed by many.

I began designing for hours at a time. Soon I was envisioning the next  Handcrafted Beaded Art Jewelry Designs  piece while  I was still working on my present piece. Everyone around me was so excited and so complimentary.  Before I knew it I was selling jewelry! The first time I was asked to show in an art gallery the fruition of  my work  made all my efforts worth it.

I am so very proud of my Handmade Beaded Art  Jewelry Necklaces and Bracelets and more  art collection and plan to continue and expand the line. Come back often to see the latest pieces I have added to my collection.
