Anne's Angels and MORE!

Welcome to my ANNE'S ANGEL & MORE page. Here you will find some of my exquisite Angel designs and so much more! I started making Angels when I was a child. I would draw illustrations and write little articles about what the Angels were doing.

I tried other hobbies such as making quilts, but sewing just wasn't for me. I would always go back to drawing pictures. So I decided to paint quilt blocks. Eventually, I designed a folded star out of four inch squares of mother's left over material. I entered it in the Kansas State Fair, and I won first prize! That year, I made everyone a folded star for Christmas, and designed stuffed animals for the children on my gift list.

Then I needed a piece of exquisite jewelry to go with an outfit. We were very poor, so I made my own jewelry out of things I didn't care for. Surprisingly, I ended up making an Angel out of wire and beads. I learned to make my own gift boxes out of greeting cards, and my own bows, too.

My thirst for knowledge of Angels grew. I wanted to design something for every holiday, hobby, occupation, education (schools and college designs), patriotism, just-for-fun, brides, mom's, dad's, and of course More ANGELS.

Now I buy charms and other metal components from all over the United States. I get an idea, draw it on paper, and then I go to work searching for just the right metal components to put my new creation together, thus, I started my incredible ANNE'S ANGELS AND MORE LINE.

Currently, I have over 200 angel designs of my own. In addition, I have designed hundreds of pins (brooch style), necklaces, rings, earrings, and bracelets created for men, women, and children. On this page you will be able to see actual photos of some of my creations. I have a gift idea catalog which was made over two years ago, and also my newest catalog for my STORYBOOK BEAD-WEAR designs. Catalogs for serious customers may be mailed upon request, and photos may be emailed through attachment files.

I call this line my WEARABLE ART! I am an artist of Jewelry, Metal, and Poetry art designs. These ideas don't come from any Art Degree. They are my own ideas from inside of me. Thus, my new slogan is: "Loving gifts from my heart to your loved ones home."

My signature item is the INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN FRIENDSHIP ANGEL AND FRIENDSHIP POEM! This Angel makes a wonderful bookmark, a simple treasure for a friend, a unique gift for an Angel Collector, an ornament for your automobile mirror, and most of all a magnificent way to Spread Friendship Throughout The World with a small token of friendship. This simple looking creation is harder to make than most people would think, but well worth it. You can send it as a card because the friendship angel is attached to the poem about Friendship and the Angel. Over 13 businesses in the North Central Kansas area are now displaying the INTERNATIONAL FRIENDSHIP ANGEL for sale in their stores. You can also see this item at www.kansasoriginals.com where Anne Shiever is one of the Featured Kansas Artists.

Let me design something special and unique for your loved one. You'll be so glad you did!! Send all emails to: AnnesAngelsAndMore@cox.net or AnnesCollectibles@cox.net Thanks for viewing!

Bless You, and have a wonderful day.
