Sandra is a jewelry designer who brings wire, bead and metalwork techniques to makers eager to discover their own creativity. She has designed, taught, contributed projects in print, and created videos for major DIY companies, museum workshops and learning centers. Many of her instructional videos on design and technique can be accessed through her website, www.sandsstones.com

As an inventor, Sandra continues to share her skills with the jewelrymaking and craftmaking world with designs, written instructions and demos based on her Conetastic™ Cone Mandrel Tool Set and Accessories. This essential tool and its family of cone mandrels is brought to the marketplace by Beadalon, and accessible through Sandra’s website and throughout the DIY industry.

Still the student herself, Sandra studies the history of jewelrymaking and it’s present day evolution. She’s inspired by period jewelry and weaves her own story of design and materials together with a “feel good”, “look great” and “function well” criteria.  Sandra shares her passion to explore, design and teach technique at every opportunity.
