New Design Inspirations for 2010

Janix Urban Glam Bird Locket Necklace

Aalia Mata Hari Amber Glass with Amethyst Lantern Earrings

Seki Urban Glam Green Quartz Necklace

Welcome to 2010!

I have been so excited for a fresh start. For some reason
2010 feels very special and charged with this surge of
positive energy. I have so many new and wonderful
ideas for my jewelry designs. I have been inspired by
all the beautiful nature and colors around me. Even
the brown winter twigs and branches have an organic
beauty that is so unique and lovely to me. I love all the
little green sage leaves in our garden. They have a soft
shade of moss green that makes me think of a secret
garden tucked behind an old cottage. The grounds are
filled with wild flowers, bushes, white roses, exotic
little birds, and old trees. This image have sparked so
many design ideas in my head and I can't wait to bring
them into life. I hope to incorporate a bit of the organic
beauty and natural colors into my new jewelry designs.
~*~

I wish everyone a splendid New Year filled with special
moments of true inspirations. May you discover new and
wonderful delights. Take time out to enjoy the little things
that make life so special. You will be amazed at all the
natural beauty around you. It is quite a fabulous view.

Welcome In The NEW YEAR!!

I am so excited for the New Year! I can not wait to welcome in all the wonderful new things and experiences that will come as each new day begins. It will be a fresh start to capturing new experiences, recording new memories, creating new things, traveling to new places, and meeting new people. A new year is such an exciting time when you look towards the future with a fresh perspective. I try to live in the moment and enjoy the simple little things in life...but I also love the fun and exciting knowledge of something new and unknown.

Each new morning starts out with a hot cup of coffee, the sounds of birds chirping, the flutter of the wind blowing softly through the trees, the light feeling of new hope, and the little spark of some new inspiration. I find it very peaceful in morning when the light is clear and the sky is a subtle hint of blue. It is the best part of my day and I truly enjoy every minute of it. With each passing year, I notice more changes in the way that I take in each new day. I know time is fleeting and you must cherish every moment as if it were your last day on Earth. I take a little more time these days to enjoy my coffee and look out the window in search of the flutter of wings. We have a couple of hummingbirds and finches that visit our backyard and I love watching them.

I truly wish everyone a wonderful and fabulous New Year filled with happiness, joy, excitement, laughter, health, and many spectacular new adventures. Life is an amazing journey and we are all here to discover and learn from it. I hope you will try something new this year and find joy in the discovery of walking down a new path.

Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas!

It has been an amazing and fabulous year! I am very lucky
to have the love and support of my family and friends. This
holiday was very special because it was the first Christmas
in our new home. I've worked really hard these past 6 months
to remodel this old house to create a special home for our
family. It was a lot of hard work, paint, tiles, wood, plaster,
and more paint. But all and all, it was worth it. Home is where
the heart is and that is what really matters.

I am also thankful for my fabulous Etsy customers from all
over the world! You have made my dreams come true and
I am forever greatful for your amazing support.
I wake up each day with a rush of energy and creative
inspirations. I realize how fortunate I am to be doing
something that I love. Thank you so much to each
and everyone of my customers.

I would also like to send a shout out to all my Etsy friends.
Each one of you have made this past year very special
and I hope you will continue to have great success. I
adore you and just wanted to express my deepest thanks
for your fabulous support and friendship.
CAKE BNR Friends

I wish that everyone will have a wonderful holiday filled
with lots of laughter, love, and happiness. May you
have all the wonderful memories of this holiday to
fill your hearts with peace and joy. Merry Christmas!

...got this cool hammer from Santa...I hope

there's some sterling silver wires, too. :)

Featured by MaxiTendance

This week has been a wild and fabulous time for my Etsy shop!
I've just been featured in MaxiTendance...all the way from
Paris, France! It was such a wonderful surprise to open up my
convo and receive such delightful news. Nat did a wonderful
blog about my jewelry and creative inspirations. You'll just
have to use the translator tool in order to read it...unless you
are verse in French. I am truly thankful and thrilled to be featured
in such a fashionable Parisian site. Paris is a city that I truly love
and enjoyed visiting...I hope to live there one day. It is a beautiful
city filled with art, fashion, food, antique shops, museums, artists,
music, architecture, history, wine, and lovers. You must visit Paris
and see for yourself. There is beauty in every corner of the city
and the Parisian people are just as fabulous. They are warm,
friendly, expressive and original. The women are always dressed
to the nine in their fine fashions and scarves...and everyone
expresses "Voila!" to everything. It's just the way of life in Paris
and I completely agree...Paris simply is Voila!

Triple Stand Cream Pearl Necklace

Crystal Drop Earrings

Vintage Blue Crystal Brooch Necklace with Pearl Drop Earrings

Mauve Pearl with Crystal Necklace

WowWowWow! I am so excited about my jewelry feature in the new Bridal Ezine "Utterly Engaged" (Issue #2)! Stephanie Williams is the amazing photographer behind these gorgeous photographs. She truly captured the splendor and beauty of this Chic Wedding Gowns theme. I had such a wonderful and fun time at the photo shoot with her and Lucie (co-creator of Utterly Engaged). The photo shoot was taken at a lush nature preserve near the Pacific Ocean. It was such a striking background for all of these stunning white wedding gowns. Each photo is so spectacular and fresh. It makes you want to wear a white dress and run through a green meadow. I love it! :)

Aluna Skeleton Key with Grey and Bronze Pearl Necklace

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=18661027

Wow!! My Aluna necklace was featured in ETSY's Gift Guides under their grouping called Nostalgic Whimsy. I was super surprised and thrilled to see one of my designs among all of the wonderful creations in this special grouping!! This necklace was inspired by a poem that came to light after I was awaken from a strange and mystical dream. The grey and bronze pearls remind me of the rich colors of the exotic blooms in the secret garden and the skeleton key unlocks it's mystery. The dream was so real that I could almost feel the cold winds blowing against my skin and smell the fragrant scent of the flowers in bloom. I was compelled to create this necklace and write this poem to capture the essence of my strange and beautiful dream.

Winter brings the northern winds as the ground is covered in shades of white.

The glass house has two secret doors. One opens up and reveals a winter garden

filled with exotic blooms. The second holds a mirror that sees into the soul. Each

glimpse reveals a new window into your dreams. He holds one key that unlocks

your secret world and opens up your heart.

This week I am featuring two wonderful and amazing artists from ETSY...Pearl Girl Pearls and The Owl Barn. These two shops are filled with beautiful and fantastic creations from two very sweet and lovely gals. I met these two ladies on Etsy and have discovered how much we all have in common. We love to create, laugh, put forth positive energy, support others and share our artistic gifts with the world.

Pearl Girl Pearls is a lovely shop filled with gorgeous pearl jewelry designed and made by my friend Elsa. She has many creative talents and inspirations to share with the world. Elsa is also a wonderful photographer and hopefully she will open another shop to showcase her lovely artwork. For now, you can enjoy her fabulous jewelry designs which were inspired by her love of pearls and the classic beauty that they bring. You can see more of her beautiful pearl creations at: http://pearlgirlpearls.etsy.com/

The Owl Barn is a spin off of The Cozy Loft...which are both the creations of my special friend Rhonda. She is the sweetest and most supportive person that I know...her whole being is filled with warmth, positivity and kindness. Rhonda's work is a reflection of her character and love of creating. Her shops are filled with her hand painted and original artwork. You will see the care and love that she puts into each handmade design as shown in her shops:

My new featured artist is a wonderful photographer name Shawn. He has a brand new shop on Etsy called Deconstruction The World. His beautiful work will take you on a vibrant journey filled with rich truth, emotion and human depth. You will feel as though you are seeing the world through new eyes. I am so impressed with his website that includes an even greater collection of images and works. His way of photographing live footages is very deeply honest and true. Each artist can see the world from such distinct and diffrent points of views. There is so much beauty in every place that we travel to and the memories that attaches itself to our souls. Shawn has that special ability to capture these moments and share them with all of us. It always amazes me how much talent there are in the world. No doubt you will be struck with his pure talent and direct way of capturing images with such raw beauty. You can find more of Shawn's amazing work on Etsy and his other sites as listed.
