Product Feature: New York City Wedding Theme

I may live on the West Coast, but I love NY, like almost everyone who has ever been there!

The NYC Wedding product line was the very first city collection hubs and I designed and it remains my most popular. Many of the icons in my collection were drawn from scratch by my hubs so you won't see them anywhere else :)

It starts with my table numbers, you choose the icons from over 30 available icons. You choose from my extensive fonts and color options...

Some Notes on Materials AKA I love rocks

I just love going to the mailbox and finding it is stuffed with beads! I mean I know I bought them and all but it's still like a total surprise and fun! I just bought some little moonstone briollettes and they are too wonderful. I love the imperfections and inclusions. It all makes me want to tell you how much I love natural stones. Especially not-AAA stones...maybe it's strange but I like to work with the cracked, included, flawed rocks. It's so much closer to nature. I also love pairing these natural bits up with Swarovski for the contrast between the machine perfection and natures perfection...just some thoughts on what it is I do and why....

Spring Line is Coming along

Hi there! I had a nice relaxing no-tech weekend and came home to a sale! Yay! I am excited to get some more spring designs going this week. Seems my spring line is gonna be lots of butterflies, pinks, greens and moonstone. I really hope that isn't cliche lol. I am also going to try to do more chunky ethnic pieces using some great coptic crosses I have had for a while now. If you want to see a peek at whats to come just look over on the side bar to see my etsy mini. After watching the Oscars a bit tonight I am concerned I am off trend again (whatever lol) because all I saw were big gemmy things...that looked super expensive. Since my clients do not generally wander down red carpets with armed guards protecting their necklaces though, I gotta just do what I feel I guess. And by the way...what the hell stone was Angelina wearing? They looked fake but I am sure they weren't ;) I gotta google that. If those were emeralds I am gonna fall over.

Ok, so now maybe it's winter!

We need it right? The rain I mean....I am happy to see it but admit it is strange to be in just plain cold rain again- it was always either icy rain in winter or it was warm rain in spring/summer in PA lol. It smells great outside though! Nothing like the smell of wet grass and dirt washed streets to get your coffee guzzle instinct going. Speaking of which....time for some joe.

Oh and of course I listed some new bracelets and necklaces over on etsy today so feel free to click my shop link and check it out if ya wanna ;)
