I have these guys (along with their earring twins) at The Other Plant Sale today, on Saturday. If you’re local, come say hi & see them in person!

Also available on Etsy & Faire, if trailside shopping isn’t your thing. πŸ˜‰

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

A real-life cutie who helped spark the redesign. 🐌

Sometimes a design just calls for a fresh take. This lil snail started as a sketch, but I recently gave it a whole new look. It’s more defined but still inspired by the snails I spot while hiking in the Columbia Gorge. 🏞️

I love the clean silhouette & how it captures these tiny trail friends.

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I love giving vintage beads a new life. β™»οΈπŸŒ±πŸ«Ά I found these sweet bellflower beads a few years back and finally turned them into something special.

They’re now live β€” hope you love them!

Deep in the forest, I stumbled upon the sweetest surprise, bell-shaped flowers, each adorned with the tiniest raindrops. 🌧

These whimsical earring jackets will be blooming into the sh🀍p this Friday!

Took a break for some gorge time (the Columbia Gorgeβ€”get 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. It’s hard to capture in photos, but I’m trying!

If you want to see how they came together, check out my Instagramβ˜€οΈπŸŒ™ highlight.

I’ve 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 β€œright” way to do it, but this is what’s working for me right now (thanks to my trusty pliers). Figuring it out as I go & enjoying the process. #handmadejewelry

Bending brass wire to make the stems for my cherry earrings. πŸ’ It’s been a bit of a learning curve working with brass in this way & even the same gauge wire can feel different from piece to piece. It’s a bit of a challenge, but the challenge is part of the fun.
