Bridal Jewelry - New Designs

It's that time of year when many brides-to-be start looking into jewelry options for themselves and their bridesmaids for their summer weddings. I recently added some new designs to my shop. Many are perfect for weddings but also proms and formal events.

Flower Power Treasury on Etsy

I managed to create a treasury this weekend. Go take a look - some wonderful items.

Vintage Sunglasses

With summer on the way here in Canada, why not pick yourself up a pair of vintage sunglasses! There's some crazy designs - makes the ones we wear these days seem so boring.

Southern Wedding Featuring My Jewelry

Last year I made the necklaces and earrings for the bridesmaids for a wedding in Alabama. A couple of weeks ago, the lovely bride, Jenifer, contacted me to tell me that her wedding had been featured in Southern Weddings Magazine Blog. Take a look at the blog - the photos of the wedding are simply gorgeous!

These were the necklace and earrings that the bridesmaids wore.

Wonderful Website - The Cool Hunter

I came across this really wonderful site the other day called The Cool Hunter. It was this photo below that caught my eye - just incredible architecture. Take a look at their site and you'll see some equally fascinating buildings!
