Thanks so much for the effort - it's definitely appreciated!" ~ J. Coughlin, Syracuse, NY "I bought my first piece of jewelry from The Elegant Bead when Cathy was first starting out. I've continued to buy many pieces ove the years both for myself and as gifts. For my wedding, I was fortunate to commission Cathy to not only do my bridesmaids gifts but also do my bridal headpiece. Each piece was handcrafted to reflect the theme of my wedding and my headpiece was carefully thought out right to choosing beads that would reflect with the highlights in my hair. I now have the memories of my wedding and an heirloom to hopefully pass on someday. I highly recommend The Elegant Bead. Cathy is lovely and her designs are unique and gorgeous. She is easy to do business with, helpful, trustworthy and friendly. You receive much more than beads; you receive stylish pieces that are priceless." ~ Shanna Hampton, Minneapolis, MN "My name is Michele Palmer, and I am a Phoenix client of Cathy's from when she first started The Elegant Bead.
