If you are using a smartphone such as Samsung Galaxy or an Apple iPhone, to view text and images without distortion, ensure you have either a current phone and/or the latest browser. Google's Chrome is what Elayne used to have on her Galaxy III but Firefox may work effectively as well. Since she purchcased an iPhone 11 in 2020, she has not had any difficulty viewing the website.
Please note that the photographs do not do justice to the beauty of the beads and the overall viewing of the necklaces. Many of the beads are highly reflective and difficult to photograph to capture their essence. It is also difficult to obtain a white background to showcase the necklaces even using MAC's preivew or adjustment layers in Adobe's Photoshop Elements. In some cases the exposure or the contrast was increased to show the beads more realistically even though the ear wire may have suffered. On September 12, 2020 Elayne resized the necklaces in the "Necklaces By Color" section to show the beads in more detail instead of side by side and deleted others that had too much of a dark background. In February 2021 Elayne reviewed the jewelry and lightened many of the backgrounds since the necklaces and bracelets show better against a whiter background. Where the background is not perfectly white, it is because the lighter beads or earrings would suffer from any more adjustments.
Colorful beads reflect the prism of life and are a joyful experience for this creator to see what she can do to arrange them to their best advantage.
