Hi,
My name is Carol, I live in Southwestern Pa. Like a lot of people I started out making beaded jewelry for my family and friends. With tons of encouragement and a lot of hope, was how my company CasDesigns Jewelry began. It has been a labor of love ever since. I can't begin to tell you how fortunate I am to be able to do something I love:) I do local art & craft shows throughout the year. There's so many wonderful people that I have had the pleasure to meet thru beading. I have so many loyal customers who I'm so grateful for and truly honored that they would choose one of my designs:)
Mostly all my designs are one of a kind pieces and creations of the moment. As the years have gone by, I'm constantly looking for new beads to add to my collection, and I'm never disappointed, some of the beads are just so amazing.... The veining the colors wow!! and to think they come from the earth like that! Each piece I design is made with my passion for beading and inspired by my love of nature and all things earthy. And the fact that someone will enjoy wearing it as much as I did making it, is wonderful to me.
Some of my thoughts......
Always be ready and willing for change, never be set in your ways, and never stop learning. Try something new, not just once maybe twice, you just might like it! (i.e. change) LEARN SOMETHING NEW or maybe JUST A NEW APPROACH TO DOING SOMETHING OLD.
Thanks to all who have changed me for the better, given me knowledge, even when you think no one’s listening, someone like me is. I feel that everyone we meet has some type of importance to us in some way, whether it’s just a brief encounter, or a lifelong connection, or just getting to know them through their creations on the web, we all take something from everyone, which in the end; I believe makes us who we are, and who we become. Always smile you never know it could change someone!
We are not all put here to be great to many! Maybe just great to one. Someone’s mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter, friend, teacher...........
Life's way to short so make the best of it......
Thanks, Carol
