My very first jewelry studio/work space

jewelry designer first studio

Yep thats it! This was back in 2003. It felt soooo good to have an actual "desk" to work from.
And real drawers for storing supplies - was wonderful. You gotta start somewhere!

That pooch under the desk was my helper, Jack.  Meaning he was busy chasing
every single bead that dropped on the floor. But he wasn't so keen about returning them. That photo of
me, not so good. But all I could find!

Since this was photo was taken I have upgraded my workspace many, many times! And I'm sure I will
continue many more. It is fun to look back and see how far you've come.

No matter the space my passion for creating a colorful life through jewelry and art lives on.

Feel free to browse all my jewelry categories to see what I've been up too!

An autographed Emerson, Lake & Palmer tee shirt with a simple black necklace

black necklace with an emerson lake & palmer tee shirt

       My husbands Emerson Lake & Palmer tee shirt was signed by drummer Carl Palmer -circa 1976.
       It is now too small for him but it fits me just fine. Yay!  Now 44 years later it's still wearable.

       Looking for a concert outfit? Grab an old (or new) concert tee shirt, add a blazer or
       denim jacket and finish it off with my very simple, Little Black necklace. You'll be feeling like a
       cat in no time!

The cutest ceramic bowl for jewelry or this tassel necklace

orange gemstone tassel necklace and ceramic flower bowl

Little ceramic bowls are so handy for lots of things like nuts and snacks. But can be extra cute for
catching that jewelry when you take it off. Especially for earrings and rings that can get lost easily.
Now this gemstone tassel necklace would fill it up - but that would also be oh so pretty!

The bowl and my necklace are at Mindfulnest in Burbank, CA but they have an online store
that you can order from.

I no longer have this necklace on my site but if you want something like it email me here!

A leather purse that compliments a leather moon necklace

brass moon leather necklace on denim

This camel colored leather is just so warm, earthy and rich. I can't get enough of it. Boots, purse,
belt, purse and jewelry it works. And it's a really nice neutral tone that looks good next to soft pastel
colors just as much as strong bold colors.

How to choose earrings for a busy patterned top

elongated abstract silver and black earrings

When you have a top filled to the brim with colors and patterns - you need simple earrings
to compliment and not distract.

This black & white checked top by Kyla Seo also has an array of embroidered flowers which makes
it very cute and quite busy. One of my favorite tips is to just choose 1 color from the pattern or print.

It's that simple. You'll be coordinated but not matchy-matchy. For more details on my 
Exclamation Point earrings shop here!
