One weekend Two weddings

What a busy and wonderful weekend, we had two weddings to attend.

Friday nights wedding was extra special because Steve officiated the ceremony. 

Rebecca number one:

Best friends celebrating!

 My very talented boat building son produced this beautiful cutting board as a gift.

Rebekah number two:

Springtime

I love spring.
New growth, new life, rebirth from a long winter.
I love all the flowers shooting up out of the ground, the azalea bushes blooming.
But most of all I know my favorite hummingbirds will be back within the next two weeks.

Here is some new work:

Custom made bracelet for one of Matt's friends.

Formed by hand with a hammer.

Springtime bracelet with freshwater pearl.

Simple round studs with garnet gemstones.

Beautiful landscape jasper.

Butterfly jasper.

Rambling on the Road

We are on our way to Maine so I figure I should use the 3.5 hour ride wisely (I-495 traffic stinks so it might take 4.5 hours).

 It was a busy week in the studio and I completed a few pieces.  The weather was great the past two days so I was able to take pictures outside.  I made a ring with a beautiful piece of  natural sea glass found up in Rockland, Maine.
A few pairs of earrings, one pair are made of  blue sea glass and the other pair has blue topaz gemstones.
I also made some simply silver earrings that will go up on Etsy sometime next week.

We took my beautiful niece  to blue man group last weekend for her 16th birthday:

First Post

My life in the cyber world is officially starting.   This blog is about my jewelry, the things that inspire me, the things I enjoy and the things in business I struggle with.

I have been struggling with taking pictures of my jewelry.  I have discovered that I enjoy making jewelry more than I like taking pictures of my jewelry.  Its hard to capture the beauty of each piece but I will continue to improve.
For now here are some examples of my jewelry.
