Jewel Tone Poppies

I had a lovely custom order to make poppies in all different colors around the bangle. I immediately thought about jewel-tone. as they call it enamels "seven gems" in Japanese, enamel colors are perfect for imitating the gemstone colors. but to developing the all different colors was more challenging than I thought. it took me so long and my customer was patiently waiting... but here it is at last! I love love love it! so my spring would be full of "Jewel Tone Poppies"!!

here is one ring I already made & list in my shop. blue topaz poppy and the pod sterling silver ring.

and this one with smoky quartz with brass ribbon (another something new I'm working on!)
I'm so excited about this new collection! happy crafting:)

winter is coming...

...and I'm very much drawn to shades of gray. every season I have some color I just attracted to and this season, it's Gray. so you'll see lots of colorful grays from me in my shop this winter!

Brass Love

you must been noticing that I use a lot of brass lately. and I do! I'm absolutely in love with brass! I love the shade of gold. deep and rich but not flashy. and they go so well with glass enamel and silver. so it's going to be all about brass in my shop this season!






Happy crafting:)

so it begins...



listing the new items! I have so many to list!! but my son is still home with me everyday so I have to find time to take pictures & write the descriptions... so it's going to have to be little bit at time. I manage to list one earrings today and I re-worked on my sections in my shop. I use to made section by collections but this time I did by what it is... I think it's easier to navigate shop. so if I can have feedback on that, I'd appreciate it!
Happy crafting:)

everyday jewels

everyday.
jewels are everywhere.

everyday.

it's in my morning cup of coffee
it's on my workbench
it's in my son's smile & laughter
it's in my husband's love & care

holding hands
everywhere.

jewels are...

little flower on the side of your driveway
breathtaking sunset you see on the way to home
smell of much needed rain
raindrops on the leaf sparkling...

everyday jewels.

you'll miss it, when you are busy
you wouldn't see, if you are hurry

jewels are everywhere.

everyday.
