Charlotte Magazine… To Die For
This is so exciting to report… For the first time EVER I have one of my necklaces featured in a publication. Charlotte Magazine does a monthly “To Die for” style section. This month the fashion focus was on statement necklaces. My necklace, the Leann necklace (named for my mom) is the first necklace featured. A big thanks goes out to Melissa Lamkin who styled the spread. She is awesome!!! So if you get a chance go to your local book store and check out page 28 of the magazine. Also If you happen to like my necklace go to my ETSY page and see if there is anything you would like to own. I also do custom orders upon request. Thanks to everyone for your never ending support!!!!

New Designs from this weekend
- A less dramatic version of the 3 strand pearl necklace
- Updated with the bow, still waiting on clasp
- This is what I made on Sunday afternoon
Here are a couple shots of the necklaces I was working on this weekend. I am very inspired by the new trends in wedding jewelry right now. I feel like everything has a stately/regal feel to it. I would love to know what you thought!

Sneak Peak at Something New
Hey just wanted to give you guys a sneak peak on something new I was working on last night. Its not finished yet. I need to find the perfect clasp but, I think its looking good so far. Let me know your thoughts! This is using one of the vintage broaches I found over the holidays.

Three Strand Pearl Necklace
Sorry it Sold, But There Are More to Come

Close up of the broach
So one of my newest designs incorporates vintage pieces, specifically broaches into necklaces. Here is the first one I made. I already sold this one, but will be getting to work on more like it soon. Unfotunately the broaches are all one of a kind, as I found them in some antique stores while home over Christmas. I would love to hear your comments on this necklace as well as suggestions for more in the future.
