Welcome! About Frog Garden Designs (fgd)

Posted by fgd | Under: Upcoming events | No Comments

Welcome to frog garden designs! – My creations are original jewelry designs  highlighting natural stones, pearls, metals, artisan lampwork glass, Czech and other unique glass beads, as well as vintage components.

Nature is frequently my inspiration and my designs are often playful and affirming of life itself. They are meant to make you smile and pause for a moment – from the natural beauty of the stones and colors in some designs to the whimsical nature of others or the vintage ingredients I sometimes use in my occasional altered art pieces. I particularly enjoy featuring natural gemstones such as jasper and agate and all sorts of pearls. At froggardendesigns, stones are often combined in unexpected ways with other bead treasures to create an eclectic and personal look.

It is my hope is that you will be inspired and uplifted by my creations in whatever way they help you to find strength, creativity, a simpler more natural life, or just enjoyment – whatever you are seeking.  Enjoy!

Etsy Store

Posted by fgd | Under: Upcoming events | No Comments

I will be filling my etsy store with new spring designs during February and adding new items every week.  Just click on the link on the left to reach www.froggardendesigns.etsy.com

My apologies for an empty store last fall  – I was so busy at the local craft shows, I had to spend all of my time creating.


If you would like to place a custom order, please contact me via email.  I can then post your custom order on Etsy or perhaps meet you at a future craft show if you are planning to be there.   I have a large variety of stones, pearls, crystals, Czech and other glass beads, metal beads and findings – no doubt just what you are wanting.  Perhaps some of my previously sold items will inspire you in terms of what design you like.

I also have a variety of earwires, leverbacks, clip-ons and studs that can be interchanged as needed.  Some are done free of charge, others for a small increase in price.  I will be happy to answer any of your questions about this – look for a future section with all the details.
