Autumn in Colorado

It is gorgeous in Colorado this fall and I thought to share a few images of the land inspiring and infusing the new jewelry designs from our daily walks.

Happy Halloween and here's sending warmth on the cool days!

Figurative Art Jewelry

It's getting cold, the leaves are crisp, gold and scattered across the trails... the perfect days for carving with tea and books on tape in the studio.

Labor Day Reflections and a Thank You...

How sweet it is to take a weekend near the end of summer and reflect on what a wonderful season it has been!  With all he celebration in the air I find myself particularly thinking of the amazing time we had in Carbondale Colorado for Mountain Fair! We had such a great crew of family and friends and met so many new friends, got to share the love for handmade and dance every night!

Sending out a giant thank you to the Carbondale Council on the Arts and Humanities and to all of our friends who came out to support and enjoy!! 

See y'all next summer!
