Patty Lakinsmith: «While I have been a bead fan since the 70s, I started melting glass sometime around 2002, and have been hopelessly addicted ever since. My work is mostly organic, but above all reflects my love of color. I make my own clasps with precious metal clay (100% pure silver), and use fine silver wire to make pieces that are truly unique. I find making beads to be an enchanting, addictive labor of love that offers me endless streams of ideas.»
