Creating Sea Change



Hope you enjoy the next several months as I post photos of my newest designs. One shipment is headed to the Feminine Mystique Art Gallery in Tubac, AZ. at the end of August. Here's a photo of Sea Change. The shell shape guided the design toward an Oriental influence. Enjoy!

I've been busy designing!


Here's a lovely pendant for Taina of flourite -- the genius stone -- and elegant silver, with hand-dyed silk ribbon. She commissioned this piece.
Oh, and I won the Tennessee Association of Craft Artists Emerging Artist of the Year Award 2010!

Lady Luck will bring her luck!


A beautiful woman wore the Lady Luck bracelet home from the Blue Suede Dinner and Auction! Made of copper for healing power, silver for elegance, lapis lazuli for truth and jade for love and money. This lapis came from Afghanistan. Greeks spoke of a "sapphire with gold" which was obviously lapis. The ancient Egyptians used lapis lazuli as a symbol of truth. Jade can bring money into your life. Imagine yourself using money creatively while holding the stone, or touching this bracelet on your wrist. Yes, someone is a Lucky Lady indeed!

Bibi Ford models Celtic vision



Just wanted to share a completely new design from Reconfigured Art Jewelry. Local attorney Bibi Ford commissioned a necklace with labradorite, rainbow fluorite and hematite. The center labradorite stone in the shape of a shield felt spiritually Celtic to me. The earrings are in the same design. The necklace is a new loop design. I'd love to know what you think!
