Blue Apple Blossoms

I love to paint, but a lot of my paintings are truly original works of art, very complex and unique, fun and innovative.  As I have been finishing up my business set up, I have been thinking its time to make paintings that I can easily re-create, re-produce, and hand paint multiple copies.  I know that even though I can re-create the same colors, and even use the same color scheme, the natural elements that I use would change as there are never 2 leaves exactly the same, no two apples grow the same way, no two snow flakes alike.  So there would still be a twist of nature in my art, and after a few very badly painted examples, I have come up with some good ideas that I think would be lovely in everyone's home or office.

Here is my Ode to Blue Apple Blossoms~

Valentine Charms

I had a good chunk of time on my hands the other day, and I chose to do the sensible thing anyone in my shoes would do.  With my sink and counter full of dirty dishes, and a house that needs a bit of cleaning up, it was only logical to get to work.  So after 3 hours of working my heart out, having fun, and feeling accomplished I stopped when my family asked for dinner.  It was then that I looked down and saw that I had created 9 sets of amazing earrings, and 4 charm bracelets.  Yes, I chose to be creative than to clean my house...but don't worry my house is now in order once again.

Check out my charm bracelets I think they're perfect for anyone's Valentine.  Best of all, you can say "I love you" any time of the year!  These are on my Etsy shop! Enjoy~

Minting those Winter Blues

I'm so excited about my first matching set of jewelry created and put up on my shop.  I had been thinking about the colors for 2 weeks before putting everything together.  I love the scalloped lace collar feel this statement necklace gives.  The dangling pearls off to the side of the necklace would be so fun to play with when day dreaming, waiting in line at the store, or talking to friends over a nice cup of tea.  The bracelets are super fun, you can wear just one, or both which ever order you like.  They are super cute for women of all ages!  And the earrings...these took forever to show me how to create them.  but I love the design.  Fun, simple, unique, dangling, light, and you get a little ping every now and then as the pearls hit each other...don't worry they won't break unless they're smashed or something crazy.

Enjoy my pictures, I had so much fun making this!
