New Season - New EARRINGS !

2010-05-24T22:24:00.003-04:00

I have listened to you all and now carry EARRINGS! I bought some earring bases this winter to experiment, and the votes are in - they are definitely keepers! Earlier this month, at the Bordentown Street Fair, I introduced my new rectangle and "word tag" earrings and the consensus was clear - keep them coming! Several women asked for additional shapes, so I got right to work. I am positive you ladies will be thrilled with the results!

Some of these earrings are part of a brand new series you're sure to enjoy. This new "Ocean Series" has translucent, shimmery layers of teal, turquoise, light blue and even a sea foam green. I can't wait for you all to see them up close and in the sun! The next chance for you to see these beauties is this coming weekend (Saturday, May 29th raindate Sunday, May 30th) in Collingswood, NJ at the 31st annual May Fair!

What: 31st Annual Collingswood May Fair

When: Saturday, May 29th from 10am-5pm (raindate Sunday, May 30th from 12pm-5pm)

Where: Collingswood, NJ (Booth E-8)

Hope to see you there!

For the past week, Pennsylvania has been a Winter Wonderland - unless, of course, you are the one shoveling the snow in which case it is a Winter Wonder-why-we-don't-move-land. Either way, a few months ago I made the perfect jewelry to complement the scenery.

Tri-County & Waldorf Holiday Shows

2009-11-29T16:56:00.000-05:00

Busy... busy... busy... This is my first weekend off for the last 3 weeks. I had a blast at the Tri-County Gift Show (above) & Waldorf Holiday Fair (below). I was limping around during the latter due to a small accident involving a falling table and my tootsie. I have a lovely bruise souvenir, an embarrassing story but no broken bones!!

"You Can't Stop Me, I'm the Gingerbread Man! '08"

I haven't even carved my pumpkin this year, but I am already wrist-deep in Gingerbread ornaments! This year I dressed up my little guys and gals with some gold accessories -- bow ties, barrettes, shoe buckles and ties. After all, we all like to look our best :-) 'Tis the season... well almost!

Now, it's time to carve my pumpkin! Ciao!

Garrett-Williamson Cancellation

2009-10-16T18:16:00.002-04:00

Unfortunately, due to the miserable forecast, the Garret-Williamson Foundation's show this weekend has been canceled. This was planned as an outdoor show with rides and vendors, but with rain and temperatures in the 40s-50s, it is officially time for indoor shows.

This is good news for everyone else though, as all of the pieces made for this show will be available next month at my other upcoming shows! Keep an eye on my Calendar (located in the sidebar to the right) to keep up-to-date on all of the latest details about where to find me next!

Keep warm!

New & Improved Ribbon Necklaces!

2009-10-14T21:15:00.000-04:00

I am happy to announce that I have an improved clasp and extension chain on all of my ribbon necklaces! The new 2.8mm Curb Chain Extender adds up to 3 inches of additional length to each necklace. This allows the necklaces to range from about 16 to 19 inches--increasing the versatility!

I am also adding some new ribbon colors to fit every taste! Want to make sure I have just the right color to match that perfect outfit or those new shoes? Drop me a line and I work with you to make sure you have just want you want or need!

This little guy was one of my top sellers! Customers agreed that this fall design is a must-have for this season whether on a ring or pendant, in silver or gold! Of course, being handmade, each was a little bit different but all were adored!

Thanks guys!

In a purple haze...

2009-09-04T20:10:00.007-04:00

Today, I started a new series to add to my Strata Collection!! So far I'm thinking about titling it "Purple Haze." It is a compilation of shimmering shades of violet and lavender mixed with silver and pearl.

This collection is inspired by my sister and niece who are always sporting purple clothes and accessories. Where do they find some of their accessories? They check out my newest creations!! I have to keep the fam at bay - which is great news for other purple-lovers out there!
