Knots 'n' Gems works with two guest designers Antoinette Guy Vare and Heather Hanley Guy.

The two future sister-in-laws both have a love for jewelry and design. Heather and Antoinette have similar but still very distinct tastes. Heather loves the fine detail work involved in chain maille while Antoinette works with nylon coated wire.

Both ladies love sparkle and some fun. Heather can be seen wearing huge plastic toys and hand made acrylic charms while Antoinette can almost always be counted on to be sporting interesting earrings. The two designed most of the twilight inspired works. Heather's famous tree pendant is always a good conversation piece, and Antoinette's original Milky Way design never fails to impress.
