"Art is unquestionably one of the purest and highest elements in human happiness. It trains the mind through the eye, and the eye through the mind. As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life." - John Lubbock, Sr.

Hello! Welcome to Belisama Designs. You’ve found my little dwelling in the great expanse of the web. Here you will find handmade glass beads and custom jewelry. Please, take a look around. You can learn a bit about me, about the art of flameworking glass, and some interesting facts about the gemstones I work with. Working with hot glass brings me great pleasure. From the moment I lit the torch and formed the molten glass, I knew that I had found my passion. It takes me to a place where I am joyous, creative and free. I hope to include a tiny piece of that joy with every bead I send out into the world.

All of my glass beads are made by hand, one at a time and properly annealed to remove stress. I currently use glass from Italy, Germany, Czechoslovakia, and the United States. I am also experimenting with luscious borosilicate glass and hope to have some sets ready for your viewing pleasure soon.

My site is a work in progress so keep checking back for more cool things being added all the time. Contests, Specials, Create-Your-Own-Piece, and more! I also have a journal where I will update you regularly on my work and fun things going on in my life.

Enjoy!
