Simple and Natural

I like things simple and natural - and nothing quite sums up my own personal look like a single honey colored leaf. It is elegant looking without screaming at you - the brass feels so nice against your skin too!

I have a few more designs to finish up this morning, droplet necklaces and then I am off to the farmers market with my gorgeous new necklace to pick up something for supper. Our local bakery will be there and they make the most fabulous vegan sticky buns!

Spring Pinks

Last week our apple tree blossoms finally opened (it has been so cold up here), the tiny pink buds opening into glorious white and pink flowers all over the tree. I create these earrings as the first sign of spring - those tiny pink clusters of blossoms, just waiting to be born.

These are one of a kind - just how I like them - a tiny garden scene right there on your delicate lobes. Hand wrapped flowers, tiny silver butterflies, dragonflies and leaves and one of my favorite grave statue cameos.

What says spring to you?

Fashion Forward Yoga Wear


I'm addicted to yoga wear -- I love the comfort and with the variety available out there, I can actually be comfy and fashionable at the same time. (My Denver sister does not think I am fashionable - but for Oregon, I am quite up to date - LOL) I wear vintage brass styles of jewelry exclusively. They dress up my jersey wrap around tops and show the whimsical side of me.

My sister (the Big City Gadabout) loves the vintage brass jewelry too -- she wears it with the sleek little suits she picks up at the big name stores to create her own style. She loves that no one else has jewelry quite like what I custom make for her.

Handmade pieces you find in our shop and others like it on Esty are changing the face of fashion, making it personal and affordable! So Etsy on ladies and create your own unique style (even if it is yoga wear!)

In that moonlit sphere of dream
we are not always as we seem.
For in this place
with memory we trace
a vision not yet seen,
of shadows that fall between
our yesterday and today
