another new hand stamped jewelry design!…

Mar 12

have been meaning to make this design for a while… inspired by one of my favorite clients in arizona named sue, hence “arizona sioux.”  i have made many, many necklaces for sue – feels like we know each other by now!  i had attempted this design a few times and it frustrated me so i threw the practice tags in my junk drawer and never looked back.  sue requested the necklace and of course i would make anything for her, so i tried again.  it took me a while but i finally figured it out.  it reminds me a bit of the rock star necklace – order it for your man but wear it with your boyfriend jeans and velvet blazer.  thanks for the inspiration sue!  you can view the hand stamped arizona sioux necklace in our store!

a new design…

Mar 12

yes, a fun new design!   i saw tim burton’s “alice in wonderland” with jette and of course was in awe.  burton does an amazing job of making every, single thing in the movie interesting to look at – from the red queens “bulbous” head, johnny depp’s orange eyes to alice’s amazing gowns.  i was in heaven – visual delight.  jette held my hand the entire time.  it was fun to have a bit of mother-daughter bonding time.  i digress… anyway, i made this necklace and thought it was the perfect “alice” necklace.  pretty, funky and visually stimulating.  you can see the new alice hand stamped necklace here!
