Shop Update ~ New Stamped Metal Designs!

Well, I just couldn't keep the secret under wraps any longer :) So, I am treating you to a very special sneak preview of some new designs that will be hitting my shop very soon. I recently invested in some new tools that allow me to fabricate certain elements of my jewelry from raw materials. I then use design stamps to embellish or personalize the metal pieces in whatever way I choose. I must say, I really love it! Below you will see just a handful of what I have created so far. The ideas are swirling about in this little head of mine, so I promise there will be many more to come!
Stay tuned for more!

Plum Crazy!

I really love this time of year ~ if you think about it, Fall is a very colorful season. That is why I was surprised to see, while on a recent window shopping trip, that the "hot" colors of Fall 2010 are rather drab and dull. Let's liven things up a bit, shall we? My favorite color is purple, especially the lovely shade of plum. Lucky for me, plum is plentiful on Etsy. Here is a very small sample of some of my faves: Where to find, from left to right starting at the top: Misty morning translucent resin earrings by Under Glass
