After years of combing independent shops, craft fairs, and Girls Night Out events for unique jewelry, I got tired of never finding the kind of jewelry I was looking for. In late 2006, I decided to take matters into my own hands. A lot of visits to some great bead stores, hours of poring over online tips, and a ton of practice later, I launched Coley Designs to share my work with you.

My pieces are inspired by classic style icons, such as Audrey Hepburn and Jackie O., as well as current trends. I love all jewelry, but my focus is on making beaded necklaces and bracelets that can be worn with everything from jeans and a t-shirt to a black tie affair.

Hope you like what you see!
