DabbleDoos "Colorful Creations" are handcrafted, original beaded designs in identification badge holders, heirloom quality
rosary necklaces, eyeglass lanyards, cell phone necklaces, beaded bookmarks, artisan jewelry etc. Specializing in glass and semi-precious stones,
I offer one-of-a-kind handcreated pieces as well as limited quantity pieces for weddings, corporate/business events,
and special occasions. DabbleDoos "Colorful Creations" are handstrung and designed by me at my home studio located
in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia, USA.
BADGE HOLDER LANYARDS are strung on 49-strand, kink-resistant jewelry cable and are available in a "pullover" style or with
a clasp at the back of the neck. Clasp design may be a "break-away" magnetic clasp, lobster claw,
spring ring, barrel or toggle. Most identification necklaces are designed with smaller beads at the back of the neck to minimize
pinching and to give a more comfortable fit next to your skin. A 15, 20mm or 25mm split ring with badge clip, or a swivel hook,
accomodates most security badge card holders or security keys.
|
EYEGLASS NECKLACES feature adjustable vinyl or elastic cloth grips which adjust easily for most types of
eyeglasses, sunglasses or reading glasses. Some eyeglass necklaces have been designed
with a shorter length and a single large ring for "hanging" reading or regular eyeglasses for a quick "grab and read".
Most of my identification card lanyards can be converted into a necklace simply by detaching the badge clip and
adding a pendant or charm to the large split ring. To convert the badge holder into a double-strand choker necklace simply use the badge clip for a clasp
at the back of the necklace.

CELL PHONE STRAPS are available for purchase on page 2 of the "Everyday" badge holders section. The strap attaches
through the small hole located on your cell phone (although you may have to look hard for the opening!). After
attaching the strap to your cell phone it will easily attach to the large split ring on your badge holder
necklace...complete instructions for attaching the cell phone strap will be included with each purchase.

High Quality...Durable Jewelry! Each handcrafted badge holder, eyeglass and cell phone necklace has been designed to give the "appearance"
of a delicate piece of jewelry yet all are constructed to withstand the rigors of daily use. These beaded creations
make an attractive accessory for displaying your identification badge card or security key, for easy accessibility to
your reading glasses...quilting/embroidery scissors...or cell phone.
HEIRLOOM QUALITY AND BEADED ROSARIES created with glass, semiprecious, Swarovski, porcelain, cloisonné, wood,
and/or ceramic or porcelain beads. The religious centers (connectors) and crucifixes are pewter or sterling silver.
Rosaries are either sterling silver wire-linked or hand-strung with strong, kink-resistant jewelry wire (49-strand,
stainless steel cable with a protective nylon coating).
