Hi, my name is Kathy. I am the artist and owner of Magical Bead Creations.
I am a ‘somewhat vintage' bohemian wild soul. My creative outlet is bead embroidery; beaded jewelry; drawing and painting. I believe that each day is full of love, magic & whimsy.
Along with being a bead artist, I am also a trained Shamanic practitioner; a Reiki Master and an Integrated Energy Therapy Master. I have been working with crystals for over 40 years.
My beading started about 15 years ago when I began to make my own jewelry. I progressed into making gifts for friends. One day I decided to combine my love of embroidery with beads and it was the beginning of a magical journey. Eventually I branched out into creating for other people who wanted me to make something for them.
Artistic creation is an important part of my life. Between commissioned projects I continue to make a variety of items depending upon how Spirit, the bead muses or my dreams inspire me. All of my Spirit pieces come to me during a specific ‘catalyst’. It might be gardening, during dreamtime, while I am holding a semi-precious stone cabochon ... possibly during a shamanic journey. It is then that they 'whisper' to me that it is time for them to BE.
I am self-taught, design and hand sew all my pieces. Many of the beads and other unusual elements that I use are one of a kind. These are never to be found again once I deplete my supply. Some works may be slightly similar but no two are ever exactly the same ... where is the fun in that?!
Bead embroidery pieces are unique works of art. I hand stitch the beads onto a base. It is backed with ultra-suede. The layers are then bound together with a whip stitched border of beads around the perimeter. The smaller bead embroidery pieces are on a strung beaded necklace with earrings made to match.
Pieces created with real silver, semi-precious stones and/or vintage elements are priced accordingly due to the more expensive materials used.
I am now offering pieces made using my Shamanic, energy healing and crystal knowledge. I will be making Spirit Dolls; Talisman pins; bracelets and treasure boxes using semi-precious stones and charged with Reiki and IET.
These pieces will be created as I am inspired. I am also willing to make them on commission for specific client intent or interest. For an additional charge a Shamanic journey can be included to consult Spirit in the creation of your piece.
