Designers, Chou
Campbell and Jeff Campbell named the business after ever
so changing paths of life's journey. This inspired them
to design and create side by side, accessories that
people would love to wear and cherish for a life time.
As time went on more and more people would ask "Where
did you get that?" I began to sell small pieces that I
had already designed... some right off my own arm. This
is the beginning of "Enchanted Pathways".
The materials that we use for our
designs come from all around the world...Taiwan,
Australia, Indonesia and from right here in the United
States. Salt Water Fresh Water Pearls are beautiful to
use as no two are alike which will give your piece its
unique character. Semi-Precious Stones are generally
ground and buffed into specific shapes. Their styles are
more uniform and used primarily as accents. Sterling
Silver beads imported from Bali, Indonesia are by far
some of the most beautifully designs beads in the world
today. These beads are painstakingly handcrafted using a
mixture of copper and pure silver. Then end result is a
single large bead consisting of many smaller beads.
Using techniques of traditional metal-smithing and
wire-working, each piece is meticulously crafted by hand
with attention to detail.
Jeff and I will be making our own
lampwork beads and incorporating them into our designs.
We will continue to support our SRA
lampwork artist here on Ebay and outside of Ebay.
We want to exspecailly thank our
suppliers for making custom lampwork beads and will
continue to buy from you, you know who you are.
Everything you
purchase at Enchanted
Pathways is exquisitely handcrafted out
of the highest quality materials and carefully finished
to last for years. Whether selecting something for
yourself or to give as a gift, you can bid with
confidence on all of our auctions. We enjoy creating and
making different styles of jewelry.
Our jewelry is handmade, and of our own
designs. We think "fun" and "spontaneity" are reflected
in our designs. We believe in the healing properties of
gemstones which is why we like working with natural
components. Our items are of our own designs, and they
are not mass produced. We do not make the same thing
twice they might look similar but, different variations.

Artisan Handmade Lampwork
Creations
My husband Jeff bought me
my first lampwork kit from Hobby Lobby in 2004. At the
time cost us with tax about $125.00, one of the best
investments we made together. I had a old over sized
computer desk that I used. At the time we lived in an
apartment. I am self taught, read a lot of books and
just basically practived round beads constantly until I
got the feel for the flame. Jeff, however, never touched
the torch while in the apartment fear of burning the
building complex down. After about 6 months he wanted to
try it, but not in the apartment. I decided okay I will
take a class with you at our local 'Art and Glass
Studio' in Belleville. The owner Larry asked if either
one of us ever took classes for lampworking. We both
said no. Jeff made perfect dots as I made nice round
beads. Larry was impressed. I did tell him I had a basic
kit that I did at our apartment. I am addicted to glass
making and just trying to find the time to make my new
creations.
In our custom designed studio in
Fairview Heights, IL. We create unique one of a
kind individual pieces and designer
sets. We use Moretti, Murano, Lauscha,
Bullseye, Effettre and various high quality
Borosilicate. Currently we use (Oxygen/Propane)
torches to create our glass art.
All of our pieces are individually designed, so
you can be sure that the piece you purchase is unique.
The lampwork beads are handcrafted by Chou or Jeff
Campbell (unless otherwise stated). All of the lampwork
beads have been kiln annealed for durability. Great care
is taken to ensure that each pieces is made to become a
treasured favorite.
