I forget exactly how I stumbled across JulRe Designs, but the moment I saw all the bead jewelry and design trends on her website, I knew I was in for a treat. Juliet Renee Williams is a personal image specialist who began creating bead jewelry for her clients after they complained about having a difficult time finding unique high-quality jewelry. One basic bead class and six years later and she’s making a name for herself at jewelry and art shows!

All of her work is colorful and professional looking and a joy to behold, but what I find really great about JulRe Designs is the way she treats her bead jewelry not just as a stagnant thing, but as a living and changing type of art, inspired by the fashion trade of New York City. She breaks her jewelry into “collections” and even makes a point of offering new designs as a new season approaches.

Her site also has a blog (her “journal trinkets“) in which she chronicles some of the trials and tribulations of running a bead jewelry business and highlighting some of the shows she’s in. She’s been featured in several magazines and even has a list of events and shows she’ll be attending! This is one inspiring woman on the move!
