Hereβs the gold snail necklace hanging out on a piece of citrine from my collection. π I redesigned this piece not long ago. Same snail spirit, just a little more bold & intentional.

I love the clean silhouette & how it captures these tiny trail friends.
Back at the St. Johns Bizarre this Saturday! Itβs been a minute β last time I did this event was 2011 (!!). Find me at booth 127 near 7425 N Leavitt Ave with nature-inspired jewelry, earrings, new ear jacket designs, mystery bags, rainbow-making suncatchers, and sale pieces. π

Deep in the forest, I stumbled upon the sweetest surprise, bell-shaped flowers, each adorned with the tiniest raindrops. π§
These whimsical earring jackets will be blooming into the shπ€p this Friday!

Took a break for some gorge time (the Columbia Gorgeβget it, haha), & a little sparkle came along for the adventure! Loved how the sunlight danced through my newest earrings like mini sun catchers. Check out my Stories to see some forest blooms & even a critter I met along the hike to Emerald Falls.

The Moon is a soft baby blue, the Sun is a light creamy orange with a little shimmer, and both have a glossy finish that kinda looks like stained glass when the light hits. Itβs hard to capture in photos, but Iβm trying!
If you want to see how they came together, check out my InstagramβοΈπ highlight.
Iβve been playing around with resin lately and decided to add some color to my Sun & Moon earrings!

Trying to capture that subtle, natural curve of a cherry stem has been the most satisfying part. Not sure if this is the βrightβ way to do it, but this is whatβs working for me right now (thanks to my trusty pliers). Figuring it out as I go & enjoying the process. #handmadejewelry
