Hearts to Haiti

As my feelings of wanting to help more in Haiti were growing, I had been working on some Valentines Day pieces for the shop. I have never made jewelry for a particular special day before, but for some reason this was the year, and February 14th is the day.



Align Center This sweet necklace in particular stood out to me, as I had the feeling of wanting to send my heart to Haiti, and now you can too. When you purchase one of these necklaces, ten dollars will go directly to Partners in Health, a wonderful organization which has been working in Haiti for many years and will be there for years to come as well. I am going to keep this offer up indefinitely and thank you for your support!

Light


Sending a million little lights of hope and help to Haiti.


If you want to help as well, there are SO many ways. Partners in Health was my first choice personally as I had read this amazing book a few years ago. They have been working in Haiti for more than 20 years and have been doing life-saving work ever since.

A few more....

rings!










The images in these were a little hard to show accurately, I felt. The colors are pretty much spot-on, but the detail on the smaller, square rings are even nicer in person. They will be listed in the shop very soon!

A Ring

It's nice to have time to experiment.



This is what I have been playing with lately, with more to come soon.




The ring itself is sterling silver. The image is an old postage stamp, this one from Thailand. It's truly a one-of-a-kind, as that's all I could find!

Print Passion


Sol
has new prints! She emailed me a while back, but I was in the throes of mass production. I just now had time to really look at her latest and greatest and of course, I love them!
Especially this one, as I am a committed tea drinker:


And this one because of the fab colors and my "need" to go to India someday....


Sol's attention to detail are what makes her work so lovely (for me, it's the little "puffs" from the spout/trunk in these images that make me smile). I can vouch for the high quality of her work, as I am lucky enough to own a few.

Thanks for the update Sol, keep up the great work!

Check out all of Sol's current work at her shop here.

Pure Joy


Rodney


Oh, to be a dog in the woods on a snowy day.


Lucky Rod,
It's always fun to walk with you.

(except when you jump in the pond to swim after ducks you will never, ever get- but you still try for hours...I love you anyway)
