Joyce
I have been beading and designing jewelry for 17 years. I have a creative background that includes music, painting, drawing, photography and architecture.

In college, I studied design, architecture, photography and color theory. Through my education, I have learned interesting design concepts that I incorporate into my jewelry designs. I like to focus on shapes, color and texture and keep my projects relatively simple so they don't take too long to complete.

My other interests and things I like include: running, listening to great music, cooking, having a great meal with friends and/or family, and anything creative.

I'm an 18 year old girl born in Arizona. I'm very active and always have to be moving around doing something. I have a really artistic family, and creativity is a part of what makes me who I am.

I love drawing, painting, singing, writing, playing piano, and fashion. When it comes to fashion, I enjoy putting pieces together that are unique and different, and, making my own jewelry, which is why I'm so excited to be blogging with Joyce at Bead Bee!

Some other things that I'm interested in are books such as 'Redeeming Love', 'The Shack', and 'Arena'.

Types of music that I like is alternative and rock including artists such as John Mayer, Jason Mraz, The Fray, Natasha Beddingfield, and many more. Some of my favorite movies are 'Pay It Forward', 'The Notebook', and 'Dirty Dancing'.

I hope to be able to put some new insight into Joyce's blog. I can't wait to see what's in store!
