BESTeam Feature :: Plum Beadacious

My first thought when stopping by Plum Beadcious' shop was how instantly I was drawn in and what I was looking at was not only beautiful it's also original and even fun! LeAllyson is the woman behind this artisan jewelry shop. About seven years ago LeAllyson's daughter introduced her to the craft of beaded jewelry making. She was hooked and has been making jewelry since and selling her creations for about five years.

A move last January from Missouri to Colorado has made rebuilding LeAllyson's inventory necessary. This move has also given new found inspiration; she finds that Colorado has ignited her creativty even more.

A variety of materials can be found in the pieces created by LeAllyson including lampwork beads, crystals, Czech glass beads, freshwater pearls and semi-precious stones. Affordability is a priority in an effort to make it possible for anyone wanting to adorn themselves with something beautiful. This is achieved by utilizing findings that are brass, silver plate, copper, pewter and other metals. Sterling silver and gold fill can be found in some pieces. You should have no surprises as to what your piece is made of because LeAllyson makes every effort to clearly describe the materials used.
