Born into a musical family, Paula (Elsner) Nurse grew up in Hawaii
singing in church and playing guitar. She began her professional
career as a back up singer for the Don Ho Show in Waikiki and for
the next 25 years continued a successful career in the entertainment
industry in Hawaii and internationally.
Eventually drawn into the world of crystals and gemstones, Paula
created Starseed Beads & Gems in the historic little town of
Honokaa on the Big Island of Hawaii. For over 10 years she created
jewelry there that can only be called pieces of art utilizing the
beauty and energy of gemstones that she collects from around the
world. In 2005, she sold her shop to devote her time solely to designing.
Originality, design and color are uniquely characteristic of Paula’s
work. She loves working with ‘high vibrational’ gemstone
beads such as rubies, emeralds, tanzanite and sapphires. However,
her work is not limited by any means to these stones but encompasses
all different types of beautiful and unusual gemstones.
Each piece is an original creation designed and made in Hawaii
by Paula. Her passion is to capture every facet of the beads she
is working with to create a special one-of-a-kind piece. She also
designs for special commissions and her clientele come from all over
the United States to have special pieces designed just for them.
