So this happened. Short, sweet meetup with this handsome devil . I love our community! Jewelers supporting one another, sharing ideas, lifting each other up - it's such a magical, uplifting vibe & I'm here for it - EVERYDAY!

There is absolutely no better way to start my day than by receiving photos of my beautiful clients decked out in jewelry I've created. It is deeply meaningful when someone chooses to invest in my work. Seeing these pieces being worn in the wild truly makes my heart soar. Rebecca is wearing her gorgeous pink tourmaline convertible pendant paired with mixed metal serpent dangles with moonstones. Isn't she stunning?!! If you own some of my work, please send pics - it's so uplifting!💖

Oregon welcomed me home with quite the show! Sun beaming through the clouds to the right & a rain storm to the left. Tucson is glorious & having warm sunshine on my face was serious mood booster - well, all the stunning gems helped too! I do love how lush & verdant Oregon is though. Traveling is wonderful, but coming home is pretty sweet too💞

Well, I made it! It's been a LONG time since I've been to the Tucson Gem Show. I'm wildly excited to see all the pretty shinies, get inspired & spend time with some of my favorite people. I'm slow moving still, but I'll make my way around. AND, my studio should be back up & running when I get home!!! Excellent timing!✨✨✨

Well, this stinks! We were expecting horrendous weather yesterday (which we got!) I planned to get some@extra work done on Friday, knowing tomorrow would be impossible. Sometime Thursday night the power to my studio went out - well before the nasty weather. We were lucky to have an electrician come out, but he's not found the problem yet. My husband (hero!) brought my laser in the house so it wouldn't freeze & die. Electrician is on his way back now & hopefully he has comes up with some good news. If I am currently working on a project for you, you will be the first to know when I'm up & running again. I apologize for the delay & hope the issue is resolved quickly. Thank you for your patience!

Wow just wow! 18k gold, silver, Mahenge garnet titled, “Wishing Well” writes about this piece, “
I am incredibly honored to be included in this very important show. I was invited to participate before the SCOTUS ruling to overturn Roe V Wade. That decision made the creation of this piece so much more powerful & emotional for me.

I have tremendous gratitude for Planned Parenthood. For a large portion of my life, this organization was my only affordable resource for reproductive health - from annual screenings to birth control. It is because of the care I received, I was fortunate to never be faced with the decision to end an unwanted or unsustainable pregnancy.

I wanted to create a piece that was voluptuous & beautiful; ripe with symbolism & open to interpretation. Serpents are a strong element in most of my work. Historically, they represent fertility or creative force. They also symbolize rebirth, transformation & healing. The Mahenge garnet centerpiece was the perfect stone to highlight this piece. This variety of garnet is sometimes referred to as Malaya garnet, which means outsider or outcast in Swahili. That brought to mind the young women ostracized for being pregnant out of wedlock; the women who have been hounded & humiliated entering abortion clinics. The diamond bead can represent so many things; a fertile egg, a birth control pill to prevent pregnancy, a Plan B pill to immediately halt a potential unwanted pregnancy, a fertility pill for those struggling to conceive. Reproductive rights cover so much more than abortion.
I chose to title this piece “Wishing Well”; a vessel to manifest wishes that resonate with your own body, sexuality, well-being & the choices that are right for YOU.
