Frantastic Creations are brought into being by artist Frances Dellar. She has been designing fashionable beaded necklaces, bracelets, and earrings since 2008. In 2010, she expanded her offerings to include her vivid nature photography that are available as note cards, coffee mugs, and calendars. Recently she has added beaded suncatchers and ornaments.
​
Fran, originally from Sioux City, Iowa, came to suburban Chicago after college as a schoolteacher and church organist. She developed her passion with beaded jewelry after taking a class at the Brickton Arts Center led by award winning instructor Suzann Sladcik. Fran was then encouraged by her instructor to pursue her jewelry designing as a post retirement career. She was drawn to start photographing her lifelong passion, butterflies. From there, she began pursuing her fascination with flowers and other subjects in nature.

Frantastic Creations are available at craft fairs. As part of her custom work, she has originated bridal jewelry, repaired, and redesigned old jewelry.
