Ring a Day and Ring a Week

"The Only Journey is the one within"~Rainer Maria Rilke

Ring a Day is over. I still don't know if I can express what RAD meant to me. It was a process for me of learning to be creative again. I was free to invent new rings. It was solely about your creativity! It was really wonderful (and challenging) to create a tiny piece of Art each day. And the support system was amazing! I feel lucky to have made so many new friends that supported me through the process and were along for the ride.

The Zen Garden Ring was my last ring #365. It was an idea I had in my mind for a while through the journey of RAD. I spent New Years Eve working on it.  It evolved as I created it (as most things do). I wanted to create a ring that meant something and expressed the journey that RAD was for many of us.

With the new year is a new challenge , Ring a Week. It will be a great place to focus on designs and spend more time on them.  And it will be so fun to watch all the creativity unfold with all the new people taking this creative challenge. Please stop by.

Ring a Day 365

Here are the final 14 Rings made by the Ring a Day 365ers. The 14 people that made it through the entire year of 365 rings in order (Left to Right) are Shannon Conrad (Rubygirl), Mike Stromberg, Rachel Stromberg (both of Mike and Mary Jewelry), Thomasin Durgin (Metalriot), Andrea Ring (Amuck Design), Aleksandra Micic (Micicart), Evelyn Markasky (Markasky), Kest Schwartzman (Vagabond Jewelry), Colleen Baran, Ponsawan Sila (Polymer Clay Beads), Lesley Tinnaro, Mary Lu Wason, Maria Apostolou, and me.

Shannon of Rubygirl is the first tattoo in the mosaic. She wrote,"The very last ring! The inscription is latin and roughly translates to "One a day, every day". This project has been amazing and I want to thank everyone who joined in - ringmakers and ring watchers alike. You all are amazing and motivating and inspirational beyond belief!"


Ponsawan wrote beautifully "When one door close, the other door open. This is not the end but the beginning. I don't feel trapped in my own little world any more. I am free."




This has been an amazing experience. Thank you to all for your support and encouragement.
