New Rings

I made a couple of new rings this week. The Rose Quartz has a simple heart cut out of the back of it. It is a perfect Valentine gift. The Turquoise ring is a simple and beautiful ring. Both are handmade in sterling silver. Each one is hand fabricated and one of a kind. They both will be listed in my shop later tonight. 
I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Weekend Photos

Over the weekend, we did lots of fun things including taking pictures for my 365 project. I took a lot of pictures of flowers. I love taking close-ups of them especially sunflowers. They are my favorite. 
We also made Art, helped clean up an Art Installation with a dear friend, and spent some quality time together. It was a peaceful weekend. I hope you had a wonderful weekend too.

Butterflies, Pearls and Turquoise :New Work

I love butterflies. 
I spotted two yesterday flying around my front yard. 
Inspired by these winter butterflies that I am blessed to see in Florida, I made this necklace to remind you of their beauty and yours. 
Like butterflies, we are all unique and beautiful in our own way. These butterflies represent wisdom, spiritual insight and each person's unique beauty.


Turquoise and Flowers are one of my favorite combinations.

Inspired by the beautiful turquoise stone, I created this blossom flower necklace in sterling silver. The setting is completely handmade and decorated with a sterling silver flower. The elegant and simple blossom rests on the side of the setting. The pretty blue turquoise is set in the handmade bezel. It is a beautiful piece of Artwork for you to wear. 
Flowers represent to me your own unique beauty. Each flower is different and one of a kind.

Turquoise is a great gift for a friend or loved one.
 If given as a gift, it is said to bring good fortune and protect them from negative energy.

Turquoise carries great wisdom for you. It is an ancient stone and is said to take on the wearer's strengths.




I made a few other necklaces that will be listed in the shop this weekend. 
They are simple yet elegant. 
Happy Weekend!

New Year...Imagine the possibilities

I hope you a settling into the new year and the routine of your days. It took me all this week to get used to our routine again. 
It's been tough after a nice two weeks off with the little one. I enjoyed my time with her. 

With the New Year comes resolutions. 
Little bit came home from school yesterday with her New Years resolution. It was to ride her bike without my help. Her resolution will go perfectly with mine. I don't usually do resolutions (I never have), but this year I wanted to try to take the time to notice the little things more and appreciate them. And I have decided to embark on another 365 project, but this time it is a photo a day instead of the crazy RING A DAY. This project will go perfectly with my intention of enjoying each day more. I will try to take my camera with me more often. It tends to sit in my studio ready to take pictures of jewelry. My photos will be posted on my flickr page.


So to kick off our resolutions, we went for a walk last night. I walked with my camera in hand, she rode. We made progress. I only helped with a push up the hills (of Florida) about half the time. I took pictures. I got a few I was happy with. She was happy with riding her bike. It was a lovely time.

Imagine the possibilities...and make them happen. My word for 2012 is 
Happy Friday~Kathryn
