Like many women who find they need to totally rearrange their lives due to new members of the family - aka children - Lori Anderson turned in her high-tech day job into lo-tech mommy-hood, staying home to raise her son and also spend the rest of her time making and selling her hand-crafted jewelry which is a mixture of artisan glass, gemstones, wire, and fused glass.

The bracelet pictured left she calls "Italian Renaissance ":

This gorgeous chunky bracelet is made with 14mm rounds of deep purple amethyst and 12mm white Swarovski crystal pearls capped in Bali sterling silver. A lovely Bali sterling silver toggle and amethyst charm finish the look.
This necklace, "Rose Pearls," is a mixture of pink pearl, rose quartz, and Swarovski crystals.


Finally, her "Ballroom Dancing" earrings are loaded up with garnet briolettes.
