Lisa Bess's adventure as a crafter of efficient accessory jewelery began in 1996.

Click the image to see a short video of Lisa's delightful and original creations and hear her explain her work.

Originally a painter -- theatrical scenery, masks, and costumes -- Lisa needed a change. So she designed a whimsical booth and began filling it with fun, affordable, original jewelry made from found and recycled objects.

Her aim is to infuse humor, spirit, and fabulous color into each piece, which she does with charm, energy, and skill.

She makes all her works by hand in her studio in Portland,Maine...Ayuh.

Stop by her booth at the Harvard Square Holiday Bazaar or visit her online at her website www.LisaBess.com.
