Where are my rodeo girlies at?! Switched out the brand on this for a pole bending image!
I have a box of unfinished pieces on my bench. Usually, I lose inspiration while working on the piece or just run out of time and need to set it aside. This was one of those pieces. However, I think it's found its place strung on silver pearls!
Send me a message if you are interested in this set!
My favorite part of silversmithing is that I can preserve peoples memories with wearable art. How cute is this mini version of my clients horse?!
Swipe to see the real Sass…did I nail her markings?
Ken called. He said you should buy these. They are on my website for all you cowgirl Barbies 🎀🤠
I haven't seen the barbie movie yet, but I have always been a barbie girl. I am loving all the pink things and barbie collaborations!
Sometimes, I dream up a design and can’t do anything else until it’s finished. It’s great for the creative in me but bad for my pile of dishes in the sink 😜
These dreamy Royston earrings are available on my website! Link in bio!
Tada! Here’s the final product of yesterday's reel. Elk ivory inlay with a beautiful Turquoise stone bezel set on top!
For some reason, I made this a size 8, which is not my size 🙄 so it is now listed on my website. This is my first inlay with a bezel set stone, so some flaws exist. I have discounted the price to reflect that, and I’m happy to further discuss those with interested buyers.
Where are my cowghouls at?! Spooky season is upon us, and I’m kicking it off with these not-so-spooky earrings 🎃👻🍂
Available on my website!
Found a little pocket of energy this morning to get the stones set in these earrings that I made months ago!
They will be available on Prettythangsilver.com under the earrings tab at 5:00 PM MST
Excuse my absence on here lately. Summer has been jam-packed! So far, I have:
* Moved to a new state
* Accepted an offer with a new university and 4-H system
* Taken lots of vacations (I never, ever do this, especially in the summer, but everyone has managed without me 👏)
Like I said, busy, busy. Grateful for all of you who stick through my absences and support me when I pop up with something new 😘
Matching His and Hers elk ivory wedding bands! Congratulations to the happy couple!
If you missed my stories, I moved to Wyoming! I have been slow in getting my benches set-up with the craziness of summer, but the shop is now up and running as usual!
My first turquoise purchase was a bar necklace. I bought that necklace with the first paycheck I received right out of college. Who would have guessed that two years later I would be making the very pieces that I drooled over!
These bars are up on my website and ready to call your neck home 😉
The other day I realized that I never make cuffs. I have been doing this silver thing since 2021 and I’ve only made like three cuffs 😅…so here’s a CUFF!
Grabbing life by the horns… or something like that!
Branding cows on the weekend and branding jewelry during the week….it’s branding season, baby!
Let me know what your favorite part about branding is in the comments! Mine is always the meal! I love sitting around after the work is done, sharing a meal, and swapping stories!
The best part of living on an old ranch is all the rusted junk I get to use for photo props!
Find these earrings and many more pieces at the Dog and Pony Show barrel race next weekend!
Appreciation isn’t official till it’s on social media, right 🤪
Anyways, I’m sure thankful for this dude that I get to call mine. Pretty Thang Silver would not be operational without him. Brandon has built the majority of my tools, provided me with endless elk ivory, listened to my meltdowns, played the role of product photographer, acted as a sounding board for my crazy design ideas, but most importantly, he supports the time and effort it takes to be an entrepreneur!
My client designed this unique piece, and I fabricated it for her. It’s extremely helpful to have a clear vision of what you want before you order a custom. We can always tweak things along the way, but knowing what you want will allow me to create a piece you will love!
This necklace is an ode to my favorite place. I don’t love the wind, I don’t love the snow, but I do love the people that Wyoming has brought into my life!
NFS, but I would love to design a custom one for you!
Forget the flowers, mom wants turquoise!

I have all the heart eyes in the world for these mini turquoise stud sets!
I’m posting these on my story right now! Grab them while you can!
My bench is full of WIP pieces! These channel rings are ready for the next step...any guesses on what I will be inlaying?!
These wedding rings have been a fun project and full of firsts! I am grateful for clients willing to take a chance on me!
Teaching yourself how to silversmith? Or maybe that pesky bead wire is giving you a problem!
Im here to help! I have spent thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours behind the bench in classroom settings to learn this trade. Let me share my knowledge with you! These calls have been super popular amongst the babysmith community, and it’s been fun to meet many new and established silversmiths through these calls.
Today only (Friday), I'm offering $5.00 off my consultation fee. Use the code “FRIYAY” at checkout! Book on my website prettythangsilver.com
No need to be green with envy 😉 because this necklace could be yours!

Don’t mind me. Just combining my new obsession with my constant obsession! I have so much inlay stuff in the works. I can’t wait to share it with you all!
You can find this lil ivory with a turquoise inlay on my website!
Things I learned last night while making this piece:
#1 Don’t try to catch the open bottle of CA glue when it falls. You will glue your hands together.
#2 Refer back to number one 🤣
I hope you guys love Inlay because there is a lot of stone and ivory inlay coming your way now that I have a split lap machine!
I probably wasted over 1/4 sheet of silver making these three times over. However, failure is part of learning, and you can’t succeed without failure. I listened to a maker podcast last night by .schwarz and that talked about not holding material in such high regard. People are afraid to try because they don’t want to waste the gold or the silver. It’s just material. Expensive material, yes, but just material nonetheless.
I always say turquoise goes with anything, but this turquoise and YELLOW Rosarita….wooooooow 🤩
What’s your favorite turquoise/color combination?!
You have 29 more days to get your momma (or yourself, dog moms count too 🤪) something for Mother’s Day!
I have opened pre-orders back up for turquoise tags! Order via prettythangsilver.com
Do you know what the best part of making jewelry is? I can make a piece to go with every outfit or occasion. Fair tagging is tonight, so of course, I needed a pair of 4-H tags 🤪
T-Minus 22 days until this rad event! Buy a hat from .co, or bring a hat! Enjoy hors d’oeuvres (or horse dorvs if you can’t spell like me 🤣), beverages, and a custom hat band when you purchase a ticket to this exclusive event! will be branding hats and slinging Pretty Thang Silver Cowboy Toothpicks!
I plan to have a variety of toothpick styles available, from “Plain Jane’s” to turquoise and sunflower toppers! If you're going and want to see something specific, send me a DM!
These guys are headed off to a much warmer climate...say hi to the sun for me 🤪
All styles of cowboy toothpicks are on my website! Grab your punchy cowboy mom one for mommas day!
Okay, how stinking cute are these for Mothers Day?!
It's April, but it feels like December here. I'm officially only able to snowmobile in and out of my house. I'm basically roleplaying an Alaskan bush person at this point 😂🤪
A lil bit of ✨sunshine✨
Thanks for the hat styling
My favorite part about the smithing world is that there are infinite learning opportunities. So excited to add bead setting to my repertoire!
Thanks for a fun afternoon in the shop
It’s always an honor to have elk ivory on my bench, but this piece was extra special because it was commissioned by a super cool lapidary family! Thanks for letting me make this piece for you
I'm currently not taking ivory orders, but if you get on my waitlist, I'll guarantee you a spot in 2023!
Surprise! I made some mini tags and put them on my website. These are great for everyday wear and are about the size of a dime!
Options include silver, copper, and silver with turquoise...hurry before they sell out!
