I haven’t been taking many jewelry selfies lately, though I always get compliments on the Maraviglia I am wearing. Earlier this summer I wore Blessed are you among Women out paired with my favorite twinsy spirals. At NEW’s anniversary party I wore my bangles, which pretty much go with all my outfits and can be […]

Before the Independence Day festivities I had some fun at Aurora Rose Boutique. Mannequins were adorned with my pieces. I might play with a scarf pendant necklace in the Fall. I set up for my trunk show there with a pretty and whimsical view. Having extra surfaces to display my wares was nice, as well […]

When I moved in 2008 I had one big wall that I wanted to turn into a gallery, but didn’t have much art to fill it up with. The vintage walls are also quite “rubbery” which makes putting nails in the walls a tricky process. So the project lingered until 2012, when I started collecting […]

This year’s Mother’s Day was the perfect time to create a piece for her, incorporating her favorite stone, […]

Infinite Rainbow Collar I will cop to having a slight Facebook addiction, but that is also the […]
Mother’s Day is nigh (May 11 in the U.S., Netherlands and Germany) and I am taking custom orders. I’ve had a few requests for birthstone jewelry, and now is the time to message me if this is something you would like to honor your mother with. Based on your family members’ birth dates I will […]
I recently visited Norridge for a Trunk Show that was a lot of fun. The sign makes me think of The Wedding Singer. It was my biggest display table yet, so I had to take two shots to get it all in. Fellow Network of Entrepreneurial Women member Marianne was there with Melaleuca and her […]
Spring is finally creeping into the Midwest. All the snow has melted and some flowers are beginning to emerge. I cleared my workspace one evening, cleaned my tools and got creative. The sunshine and longer days drew me into the studio several times and I’ve enjoyed shaping and embellishing the wire into my vision. This […]
