Jeanne Novak, known as the Beaded Gypsy, has been designing original beaded jewelry since 1991 with a long and outstanding career as a bead artist.  Jeanne’s work has appeared in galleries and art shows throughout the Midwest, Colorado, and Virginia.  As a bead artist, her work expresses both traditional and innovative beadwork. Her beadwork is hand sewn, primarily with seed beads, with a variety of off-loom stitches to evoke emotion through color, design, and texture. 

With over 15 years of beadwork teaching experience she is a natural teacher, enthusiastic when teaching one-on-one or with large groups of students at all levels.  Jeanne is also a certified instructor in Precious Metal Clay. Jeanne’s passion and joy for beading is seen in her beautiful creations as well as her fun classes!!

The Beaded Gypsy site will offer you beautiful, one of a kind beaded jewelry.  All work is created with high quality beads, semi-precious gemstones, crystals, pearls, and silver.

Custom jewelry excites Jeanne and she can create jewelry for any special occasion.  Please look around and feel free to call Jeanne or drop her an email with your special requests.
