We are jewelry designers-my friend Jeannette O'Brien, my cousin Sue Collier and myself. Catherine Vrchota Najmajstr, the great-grandmother of Sue and I, was born in Bohemia and came to the US as a young girl. She was a very talented lady who is loved and talked about to this day in South Dakota, where she homesteaded with her husband. We like to think she dreamed of this day where we can share the bit of talent we inherited from her with a large audience.

Jasmine's Big Day
I had fun making this necklace for a friend out of beads she picked out. I designed and made the pendant myself out of Russian jade, Swarovski crystals and Czech glass leaf shaped beads. The main part of the necklace is made of Russian jade and onyx beads. This I made after going on a grueling 8 mile mountain bike ride with Jeannette and Jasmine in 85 degree heat. We all loved it, but I was really weakened during the ride from the heat and Jasmine threw up about six times after we got back. Jeannette and I probably shouldn't have let her drink the liter of water when we got off the trail (literally). Jazzy is back to normal now and ready to go for a walk or something.
