Beaded Earrings New in the Shop

It's been a very long time since I've added any new beaded jewelry to the shop...until TODAY! I just added 4 new styles of beaded earrings and keep your eyes open for more to come. All 4 styles are sterling silver and are $15 each.

Support Your Team Player with a Personalized Item!


My husband had the wonderful idea of making a necklace that's designed for all of the sports moms (and dads) out there that want to support their kids every day. I thought it was a great idea and found some adorable block number charms...the rest is history! My newest creation has the medium sterling silver disc as a base that can be stamped with the players name or school and the sterling silver number charms are laid on top of it. You can also purchase add-a-charm crystals for the school colors. The necklace by itself is just $28 and $34 with two team-color crystals.

Scrapbooking again feels so good...

I have had time in the last few weeks to do a little bit of scrapbooking. Pages usually take me about 1/2 hour each so I don't ever feel that I get much done, but just getting a page or two complete makes me feel accomplished.

This first page I did used some new goodies that I got from Pink Paislee. They had a 2008 Inventory Sale and I got about $150 worth of scrapbook supplies for $50. It was well worth it! I love everything that was included. All of the items shown are from Pink Paislee. I used stickers for all of the text and a cute blue chipboard leaf stem.

The next page is of my sweet boy. The paper is again from Pink Paislee. I added some brown and white ribbon and on the navy cardstock I sprayed some Glimmer Mist that I got from this kit. It's a really cool product that is like spray paint but in a really small bottle. This color of Glimmer Mist makes a silver color, although it didn't work as well on dark paper. It works best on lighter paper like white or red. It still gave a nice effect and added some dimension to the navy cardstock.

Celebrating Life's Milestones...


My family is the most important thing to me so I decided to make a necklace with all of the milestones in my life. I did mine and my husband's birthdays, our anniversary, and our children's birthdays. I did it on a gold filled rectangle and decided not to darken the letters like I normally do. I love the subtlety of it. It's become my newest favorite piece and (I hope) a conversation starter when people see me wearing it.

Celebrate the milestones in your life...

Stampable Letters!!

I am super excited about this new item. As far as I can tell, I'm the only one on Etsy selling these stamped letters. I just posted them yesterday on Etsy and my website. You can get the letter by itself as an add-a-charm or as a necklace. They are perfect for weddings/anniversaries with the wedding date stamped or for mothers with the child's initial and birth date stamped. I hope you like them as much as I do!

I'm back and I've posted a new necklace!


I returned on Sunday from our mission trip to Panama. Read about our adventures on the Global Expansion Blog.

Last night I had the pleasure of making a new Heirloom necklace that a Maid of Honor designed for her best friend who is getting married next Saturday. I just posted it on Etsy. It includes a 1" sterling mega disc, a 1" sterling bar and a 1/2" mini gold filled disc. The price includes a 10% discount and all components are fully customizable so you can make it into a family necklace as well!
