The Wedding Jewerly

When I received an exciting order for bridal jewelry, I new I was going to put a lot of effort into this project. Being apart of a wedding is an honor whether it's internally or externally. Helping the bride, Shira, create her own envision of "wedding jewelry" was a big exploration of creativity for me. With the bride's request, I was able to use this creativity and imagination I have and create pieces that only her and I were able to imagine. I can only hope the collection I made for her wedding lives up to what she had envisioned. Big thank you to my sister for passing my information along to the bride!

The collection is a mixture of natural material of seaglass, druzy, and fluorite, that I use in my work that the bride requested. The overall process took longer than expected, my workbench was my drawing board for over a week. She wanted each piece to be unique and different but overall tied together by being in the same collection.

Red Statement

I wanted to make a special piece for Valentine's Day so I gathered some red beaded material as well some chains and I went to creating. I decided on a high statement piece with a red lip to match. There's no limit as to what I'll strand together next, but for this piece I wanted to keep the piece simple, yet a special statement.

When an opportunity arises - I'll always take it.

One of my good friends Dave, who actually helped push me to pursue jewelry, has been a huge positive supporter of Ability. I believe he has the same level of inspiration and motivation for his music as I carry for my jewelry - which is why I know we connect so well. 

Being the person he is,  I wasn't surprised when he told me about the recent connection he made at work. He’s the bartender for M&S Grill which is also where I used to work. He had the owners of Tami’s Table stop in for a drink one night and got to talking and somehow my information about my jewelry business was passed along. I connected with the owner and he invited me out for open mic night to set up and sell my jewelry to their customers.

I took the offer and set up Friday evening and had such an amazing time. There's no better feeling then standing behind your own business and allowing people to admire, try on, compliment and buy the work you've done.
