More fun stuff I worked on while our air quality was terrible. Feel sorry for the folk in direct contact with our wild fires. Wow and special thanks to the firefighters who risk their lives and lungs to help fight the fires.

My mama has been gone just over a year now. I'm so glad to have spent most of my life with her. Me as a child, adult, mother myself, and as a married woman with a couple more kids. The opportunity to have her help raise our children into their own adulthood was awesome. Yep truly blessed. And that old cat of hers is still with us and still missing ma as much as we do. Heart n soul filled with love that was my mama.
Variety is always good 😊 Gems, shells, etc... long, longer, longest. Ok a few shorter too.
New longer necklace. Inspired by our natural environment. Mother Nature rocks! Even some shells at the neck to bring in the sea. Is it a bit heavy? Yes but we’ve been heavy on Mother Nature. Just wear her graces with pride🤗
New season color of black jet with crystal pearls and 995 sterling silver over solid copper core. Long 26 in necklace with 8 in bracelet can add to make wrap layer look.

It's my 12 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳 Time does have wings. 🪽
Contemporary Jewelry Handmade in Northern California from the Highest Quality Natural MaterialsI like using strong beading wire, mixed metals, leather, I love turquoise, shells, various gemstones, crystals, bone, ceramic, acrylic beads and good strong crimp beads are a must.There are so many product options out there.I decided to limit my products to mostly North American regions and Mexico. I remember when I first started I purchased some Chinese turquoise and wasn’t too pleased. Then I learned a few of my vendors were selling me Chinese stuff too. There are some quality gemstones mined in China. However knowing the distance traveled made me reconsider and stay within our continent. It’s a big one anyway. Jewelry making helps me relax, I find it therapeutic. My back and fingers get sore but it’s all worth it when I see someone wearing something I’ve made. Darn right Joyous!
