This page is dedicated to custom-made beadwork as well as "eye-candy".
Beading with Carl specializes in jewellery and beaded items for any occasions, e.g. weddings, matric farewells, anniversaries, Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and the crafting of family heirlooms, e.g. needle cases, personalized beaded serviette rings, special seasonal decor items, etc.
Below you will find some photographs of items to showcase craftmanship and to give you some idea what is possible in design, use of colour, etc.
Should you like to have a beaded item custom-designed and/or custom-made, please contact me, using the contact form, with a short brief and I will gladly discuss your requirements with you on the phone or per e-mail. I also would like to mention that most beadwork shown on this site can be re-created in your chosen colour scheme (subject to availability of materials needed to create the item) and sized to your requirements. It goes without saying that only the highest quality materials suitable are used to create all beaded items! To highlight one example: The Shoulder-duster Earrings were custom-designed to match in style and colour the custom-made evening gown. Swarovski crystals, South Sea pearls and Japanese seed beads as well as twisted bugle beads and Sterling silver findings were used to create these special earrings for a very special occasion.
