My Year in Jewelry Designing






It has been a great year for me in regards to moving forward in my jewelry designs and I am learning so much..next stop, precious metal clay,,,hmmmm.

I would say that most of my work this year focused on alot of blue semi-precious stones wrapped in silver. I also loved creating many spiral designs. This is my year in photos :)

Winter... Ya Gotta Go!




Yesterday was seriously crappy weather. I don't know what it is about this Winter that has me feeling soooo blahhhh. It's not even like I want to go to a warmer climate, I just want my New York City in the Spring!

AAAhh I love that first warm breeze and the scent of cool rain that first hits me around March..It is usually in the evening, I will be standing outside looking at the moon or(taking out garbage) when all of a sudden a gentle breeze will caress my face and the fragrant smell of Spring enters my nostrils. To me it is a gentle reminder that in the force of the wind and cold....A new day is coming.

Well, anyhow while I was stuck indoors the whole weekend I tinkered with my copper and made two awesome rings which have alot of movement and whimsy. One has a ruby czech crystal, both are hand forged and slightly textured.
