What fascinates you about using SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS?
They simply highlight everything! A more decent shimmer with Crystal Dorado finishes, a fancy bling with 2xAB, a classical look with SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS Pearls.

What is your favorite SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS color?
Hard to pick out one single color, where they are all so fascinating! Actually I'm working with Capri Blue AB which reminds me of the Mediterranean sea, before I had Olivine Dorado... very elegant! Not to talk about Red Magma!

What is your favorite SWAROVSKI ELEMENT?
I love all kinds of Rivolis, Chatons, Triangles in all sizes. It is always an experience to bezel them and combine them to spherical objects. The aim is to show as much of SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS as possible!

What is your favorite design you have ever created with SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS?
The Star ball! It is a sphere made from 12 bezelled Chatons (8mm), easy to make, absolutely stable and it shows the whole sparkling beauty of a Chaton!
