Welcome to Stranded's Official BLOG!

The purpose of this BLOG is to let our customers know the latest trends in fashion and jewelry. All of the artists at Stranded scour the latest magazines such as InStyle, Lucky, Shop, and Adore, to name a few, for the lastest designs in beaded jewelry.

Also, we would like to think we can start some trends as well. All of the artists are constantly looking for new and different materials to work with. For example, I have been shopping antique stores and antique swap meets for vintage charms. The charms add a unique feel to the pieces I design.

I'm also very intrigued with Milagro charms. Many of my pieces incorporate these charms. Bead Soup, on Stranded, has a list of most charms and their meanings.

We hope that you will find these postings fun and interesting to read! Check back often.

  • Dear Standed (ok, Dear Patty),
    I think you have done an exceptional job with your jewelry business! Your logo, your website, sharing the spotlight by featuring other artists and giving them the opporuntity to share their art, to making your one of a kind peices with all of the thought, excitement and creativity that you give every peice is really a passion and a gift to be shared with others! I'm so proud of you Patty! Keep the beautiful, one of a kind pieces coming!

  • I just saw your work and the work of the other artist, I must say your work is impresive. I have seen so much on line, but I must admit, that what I saw in Stranded, is so appealing to the eye, I actually said wow, to most of the pieces I saw (all artist).
    I myself make jewelry and sell most of it. they are too are one of a kind. I had no idea how beading was so popular. I incorporate my beads on everything I do. but jewelry making is #1.
