Featured in Utterly Engaged!

A local photographer, Stephanie Williams, contacted me about using some of my jewelry for a bridal photoshoot. I was honored and jumped at the chance! The photos were going to be used for a new e-zine, Utterly Engaged. It's a beautiful e-zine which gives wonderful and creative ideas to brides on everything from dresses and accessories to date nights.

My jewelry was featured in their second issue! Please check it out. I hope to have the honor of working with both Stephanie and the gals at Utterly Engaged. Below are some of the pictures, they are gorgeous!

Love Swarovski Filigree!

A few months ago I looked for filigree flowers to use for a charm bracelet and discovered how much I loved them! They looked so beautiful as earrings and were selling well in the shop, so I bought more! Not only did I buy more, I bought a variety of filigree crystals. The possibilities are endless!! Here is a picture of the earrings so you can see the different sizes.

I also used them in bracelets...next come necklaces...LOVE IT!

Craft Swap!

I participated in a craft swap organized by Kelci at Crafty Mama Creations. We were partnered up with another craftster and had to make something for each other. Well I had the wonderful Kelci! She made me a beautiful and large (just like I requested!) cosmetic bag. Not that I wear that much makeup but there never seems to be enough room in them when it comes to traveling. I love the polka dots on the inside!


I also emphasized that I wanted a clutch! She came through again with this beautiful and colorful clutch. It's perfect! I really love the aqua and can't wait to use it this summer.



I also made something for Kelci. She loves anything bold, and when I saw these green jade gemstones, I knew they were perfect. I bought an extra strand to make myself one! That happens alot... :) Check out Kelci's shop on etsy, she has one of a kind bags and accessories. I have my eye on a wristlet in her shop too!




She blogged about necklace and earrings and even took a pic of herself with the set on. Check it out. It really looks great on her! Maybe I am biased...
Thank you Kelci and have had a great experience and look forward to doing it again!

Featured in Etsy Gift Guide!

I was wondering why the number of views for my Freshwater Pearl Circle Necklace had increased significantly over the weekend. I did a little research and discovered that my necklace is being shown under the Wedding Gift Guide on Etsy. How exciting!

Definitely a plus after having my ipod and a couple of orders (among other things) stolen from my car over the weekend. :(

I am considering the Valentine oreos for my valentines and gourmet popcorn for myself...sshh, don't tell them. :)

Mmmm, lunch!

So I just fixed my lunch at work and it looks pretty darn good! It looks like it belongs on a menu. I just had to take a picture of it. I am weird that way.


My salad has pecans, fuji apples and a spring mix. Towards the back you will see a piece of cheese, underneath that is a homemade (by me) turkey patty. I got the recipe from the foodnetwork.com and it has red bell pepper, red onions, cheese, and spices. Yummy! I was actually complimented by my husband last night and my youngest Lucia gobbled up a whole one really quickly.



Happy New Year!
