Recent inspirations...



I'm wrapping things up for the ICE show this weekend, I really love the fall line and I think the brass and embroidered felt will work well for the season. I've already started thinking about a Spring/Summer line!! I think I will jump into the world of silver, take a break from the brass!! I've pulled together a few images that have inspired me...

I love the colorful smokey photo above, soft and haunting...It lead me to gather some material images for a line of silver jewelry.

I'm gonna try mixing silver, copper, pyrite, crystals, soft peach hues, and burnt woods! I also found some shell beads that have a similar smokey pattern like the picture above. I really want to tackle PMC- precious metal clay and create some of my own quirky pendants and chain links. I think pastel leather cord and satin ribbons will add some softness to the pieces!
