Sweet, sparkly beaded snowflake ornaments! Just like real snowflakes, no two are exactly alike.

Each ornament is handmade from a colorful variety of glass and crystal beads on a sturdy steel wire. They are approximately 4 inches in diameter and each has a simple loop to hang with at the top.

The images here are examples of snowflakes in assorted colors. I will send you an ornament that is similar to the ones pictured, the exact design you receive will be a surprise! Each snowflake is packaged on a card and in a bag, suitable for a gift.

These festive beaded ornaments are a great way to celebrate the season of Winter, Christmas, Hanukkah and New Years with handmade decorations. Lovingly handmade in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, USA.

The snowflakes are available in Holiday Red, Rainbow, True Blue, Ocean (blues & greens), Winter White, Wampalyke, Mixed Metals and Sea Glass color themes.

About Laura Lobdell

I create coastal-inspired art and products. It’s my hope that by bringing my art into your home, you’ll feel transported back to your favorite coastline; perhaps treasuring a piece I’ve created as you’ve once treasured gifts collected from the sea.

A little about me... 

I began my career in graphic design, and much of what I do today is rooted in and well served by my extensive design background. On any given day, you may find me creating a new painting, sketching plans for future collections, or gathering inspiration by the sea. Much of my art is influenced by my coastal surroundings. I live and work in the Wilmington, North Carolina area with my husband and our two creative, ocean loving children.

These coastal-inspired flour sack tea towels are artisan feature watercolor paintings by an artist named Laura in Wilmington, North Carolina. Influenced by her coastal surroundings, her delicate hand painted watercolor oysters are a beautiful reminder of the treasures we all collect and take back with us from the beach. 

Offered in a variety of prints, these tea towels are sure to make a lovely addition to any home!
