Sweet Inspiration

I've always considered myself more of an eater, not a baker. Though recently I have managed to wow even myself with my sweet treats. So, I decided to archive my work here for anyone who didn't believe I could bake without burning the house down (myself included).



I mean, what could possibly be more fun than cupcakes? They are, in fact, the inspiration for my newest creation. Since I've recently been making a variety of cupcakes, I figured it would be fitting to try and make a necklace with the same beauty and whimsy as those little cakes do. The Sweet Cupcake Necklace is handmade by me here in my studio, and guaranteed to last longer than the real thing. :)

Retro Glam

Going through Stephen Webster's amazing website, I came across these advertisements featuring Christina Aguilera. I just love the glamorous 50's feel they have. Really makes me want to go platinum blond again.....!

Pretty, shiny things



I'm a big fan of rose gold, so naturally I was attracted to these amazing bangles by Ippolita. They are actually sterling silver mixed with a precious alloy of 18K gold and plated with 18K rose gold. Obviously they can be worn year round, but I think they are just perfect for spring...don't you?

I just adore these dresses handmade by fellow etsy seller sarahseven. They look like something out of a fairytale! Maybe someday, sigh....

New Necklace Sketch



I've been working on some sketches for new designs lately. This one is my favorite, inspired by birch tree branches.

My fancy new sketchbook





I am absolutely loving my new sketchbook! My husband found this for me and figured it would be a perfect Christmas gift. The website is http://www.bookjournals.com/. They have a wide variety of covers and are handmade from recycled books.

I've been really into old skeleton keys lately, so I've been sketching new designs for some necklaces.

New Ring Design



Been working on a new ring design that incorporates my Victorian Ribbon Mini. I'm pretty excited to add more rings to my collection!
