Melissa Martinez

Hello Friends my name is Melissa Martinez.

I started making jewelry in early 2007.  I love being creative and letting the beads work into a design. With beads it is fun to mix metals and color combos. I am inspired by nature and all of it's beauty. Most inspiring to me is the ocean or sealife. 

My favorite techniques include stringing and bead weaving. If I had to chose a favorite stitch I would have to say right angle weave.
