New Work Preview

"Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." Anais Nin
I feel like this is my mantra for this year. 
I think about this quote daily.

I know many courageous women in my life and I am blessed to have them as a part of my life, new friends and old. 
They inspire me.
I am very blessed to be surrounded by amazing creative women who dare to dream each day. 
There are others who are beautiful teachers and beautiful people inside and out that I am fortunate to know and have in my life. 
Still others are amazing Mother's teaching their children to be wonderful souls. 
And some I know are combinations of all of these traits. 
  

Inspired by the beautiful turquoise stones, the Anais Nin quote and amazing strong women in my life, I created two new rings in sterling silver. The settings are completely made by hand and decorated with a sterling silver flower and wrapped with a beautiful vine 


and a butterfly.

Flowers represent to me your own unique beauty. Each flower is different and one of a kind as are each of you.




And butterflies represent your beauty within. And the struggles and transformation that we go through to get to where you are in your life. And the courage to continue on without knowing what the future holds for us.

 My shell series is, of course, inspired by the beach! The ocean calms me. I love sitting on the beach and looking for shells. It has a way of bringing me into the present moment. These shells are handcast in sterling silver. Each one is cast by hand from a shell I found here in Florida or one I bought at the local shell shop.




I will be listing most of these today and tomorrow. 
A few of the shells are already spoken for. 
I hope you have a nice day! 
~Kathryn
