Amazonite and Carnelian

There isn't a specific necklace that inspired this piece, but maybe a few. I've seen so many necklaces in stores that have been combining various colors, shapes and sizes of beads, but had nothing similar in my jewelry box.

I knew I wanted to make something with some a few different, larger stones.  I love Amazonite and a warm carnelian together and just added in touches of pink. 


My favorite thing about this necklace is the amazonite teardrop cluster. I use clusters quite often, but usually in repeated patterns. I love the way it looks on its own!



I have some crochet projects to hopefully do this weekend but also some packing, so we'll see which comes first!  

Enjoy your weekend!

Grey, Yellow and Turquoise



I'm moving to New York in a few weeks and before I start thinking about how I want to decorate my room, I should really focus on where I am going to live!  But, I really want to use grey, turquoise and yellow...They are happy colors!

Have a great weekend!

Pops of color

I'm really loving bright colors these days, especially in jewelry.  Even if you are already wearing a bright coral top, you can still add an aqua or yellow accessory.

Color Play: Coral and Light Blue

Who loves Sprinkles cupcakes??  I do!

Who would have thought their little dot toppers would bring color inspiration for mixing gemstones?


Red coral and light blue make a beautiful pair. I'm not usually a red fan, but adding the light blue brightens and gives it that modern girly feel...
