About Air & Earth Designs
and Kandice Seeber

Air and Earth Designs is an in-house lampwork glass studio and small online store where you can buy handmade lampwork beads. If you wish, you can see some feedback from my customers over at eBay by clicking here.

Air and Earth Designs is essentially me, Kandice Seeber, the webmistress and glass beadmaker. I am 34, married and live in Washington State with my husband Ken, and kitties Pumpkin and Ember.

I've always loved beads and color - I first got into beading when I worked for a fabric store during my college years. Color is a major inspiration of mine - I adore the way color plays with light. I bought lampwork for my own jewelry creations for awhile, and just fell in love with the medium. When I discovered several years ago that one could make her own beads, I was hooked! I have been in business online since July of 2001, selling my handmade beads and jewelry. I have been making lampwork glass beads since July of 2002.

My beads are made from Effetre (Moretti), Vetrofond (Murano), Bullseye, Czech, and/or Lauscha glass, then annealed in a digitally controlled kiln for lasting durability.

Jo over at Lampwork Art interviewed me, and has posted that interview on her blog. She has said some really nice things - I'm grateful.
