Crazy Busy With New 2010 Collections

Do you ever find yourself so busy that you’re not sure that you even blink? That would be me over the past few months. But, it’s all for a good cause. At least, it is if you love what you do for a living… and I certainly do.

I’ve been working on designs for two new green couture jewelry collections that mix elegance and drama with a touch of fantasy. They’re mythical, ethereal and enticing designs that tell a story. And, they’re sure to turn heads! Both of the new 2010 collections feature mixed media designs with fine and sterling silver, bronze, copper, hand carved gemstones, glass and enamel, polymer clay, as well as natural and found materials.

New designs are also coming for two of my existing collections launched in 2009, Earthly Desires, a collection featuring earth-inspired designs, and Ethereal Sands, my bridal collection.

The Stories Behind the Designs: Earthly Desires

I have an interesting story behind how the Earthly Desires Collection, & necklace of the same name, came to light, which I have posted in The Buzz.

I always find it interesting to discover how people garner inspiration and come up with different design ideas. I thought it would be fun to share the process involved with this piece & related collection so that my readers can do the same. :)
