About me

Welcome to Beads by Fall! My name is Autumn, and I am passionate about making beautiful, affordable, wearable gemstone jewellery. 

At a young age I found myself obsessed with collecting and identifying rocks; Often convincing my 7 year old self that I probably struck Gold, Emeralds or Diamonds in my common minerals (L-O-L). One of my fondest childhood memories is collecting rocks from my great grandmothers garden in my birth town in British Columbia, and to this day I still have a Ziploc bag of the rocks I collected over the years of my childhood, my favourite specimen being a palm sized piece of Garnet Schist. 

Another passion of mine is family history research. Due to broken families and my great grandmother losing her parents as a young child, a lot of history was left a mystery, and all we had was the lore of being related to Kings and Queens. My mother spent years trying to uncover answers, and in my later teenage years I decided to join her. It has now been over a decade of discovering and learning about the incredible (and abominable) ancestors we descend from. 

Combining these passions is what birthed the Bloodline Bracelet - similar to a "Mothers Ring" which showcases the birthstones of her children, but without the hefty price tag - I created a beaded bracelet of affordable, genuine gemstones that represents a family from as small as 3 individuals, up to 4+ generations. 

In addition to the Bloodline Bracelets, I have created a collection of birthstone bracelets that are dainty, wearable, and affordable, as I found my options to be limited by large price tags, Cubic Zirconia wannabes, or Earthy bohemian style pieces that were beautiful but very limited to certain outfit styles and couldn't be dressed up.

The magnetic clasps I use are strong holding and very user friendly. As someone with a connective tissue disorder who has days where I struggle with clasps, the magnets are incredibly helpful to put on and take off by myself. It also gives me a peace of mind when my children yank on my jewellery, as the magnet simply comes undone as opposed to breaking the clasp or compromising the delicate silk cord. 

Whether you have a passion for dainty gemstones, family, or are seeking user-friendly pieces, I hope you appreciate my pieces as much as I do 🫶
