Welcome to Anna Jean Mayhew's World of Handmade Ornaments
 
 

Like snowflakes, no two are alike...

These exquisite pieces of needlework art result from 45 years' experience in crochet, a craft Anna Jean learned from her grandmother. Each ornament begins with choices of color, thread thickness, and needle size, and ends with whimsical glass beading...thus each is unique. Anna Jean crochets cotton thread and brilliant metallic fibers, then weaves beads into the design, a technique that takes five to ten hours per piece. All ornaments can be hung, and some are weighted to stand alone.
