Custom Works!

There is nothing better than being able to say that you have a ONE OF A KIND! I love it, have since I was a little girl. I'd love to take something that is just ordinary and make it my own. I'd take clothes apart, add trims, change the style and just make it all me! Now I have the pleasure Of making one of a kind jewelry for others like me who love to be different!

Over the past month I've been working with fellow Etsian Michelle Glaeser to create a great piece in trade for something that I LOVE from her shop (i love Etsy).

First let me introduce you to "Peacock Star".... the fun star concho piece that I made for Michelle:



A fun mix of amethyst, sodalite and sterling silver, and a few fun glass pieces thrown in because the color was so completely on the mark!


NOW... Michelle Glaesers work... OMG I'm in LOVE with her stuff and "Lofty Heart" is about to me MINE!


Now this one is for sale in her shop (see link above) and is a total steal! Mine will have a crown on top of the heart because well... you know if I had a halo it would be tarnished and I'm more of a princess anyway. LOL

So.. when you see me sporting "Lofty Heart" be jealous... be very very jealous! ;-)

Until Next Time~
Peace, Love and Wings

Wedded Bliss.....

In honor of my childhood best friends upcoming wedding I thought I'd share some of my most popular wedding pieces as well as a little teaser of what I'm working on as well.

I have done "Champagne Wishes" for many many brides and have shipped this one to Boston, St. Louis and a few other places in between. Such a simple piece but gorgeous with a strapless gown!
Well now "Champagne Wishes" has a friend... "Dreams" the sultry gunmetal grey version. Personally I love this color and think it would be fantastic for a bridal party.




But I think the bracelet to go with "Dreams" is my true favorite... I need a reason to dress up!

Now... with the inspiration of Chris's gorgeous and understated dress I'm working on a simple crystal drop pendant that is so simple but amazing all at the same time. Picture delicate sterling silver chain with this anchored to it.


Simple but stunning... I cant wait!

I've been busy busy busy lately so stay tuned for some really fun stuff to come. Think pink, MENS and great earrings!

Until next time~
Peace, love and pretty shiny things!
