Usually, I let the stones and beads guide me when making my choice of materials to use for a necklace. I do not have a fixed design in my head. And whatever it is that appeals to me in size, color and texture starts forming the design in front of me. But in the end it is always the translucence of the stones or beads that inspire me. I am also very influenced by the profusion of colors in San Miguel.
When we go on trips I am constantly on the look out for interesting medallions and pendants which adds to the adventure of sightseeing and the appeal of a necklace.
