I'm so glad you've chosen to visit my website. Take your time, look around, enjoy the view!

I just thought I would let you know a little MORE about how I got here, how I intend to stay here and a few tips that you might find good to know.

Ines Hardtke, as mentioned in the "about" section, gently encouraged me to take this plunge. Never pushy, never insistent, she waited patiently until the spirit moved ME. Although the content, (images, words, jewelry, etc.) are mine, Ines must get the credit for the design. Over the past 16 months or so we have talked and shared so much, and in those exchanges she has gathered little cookies of information from me, filed things away in the back of her head. She listened to me and learned about me so completely that I was moved to tears when she sent me the first trial page. It touched my heart, my soul, appealed to all that is ME. She is an amazing person and I thank her, once again, for sharing her creativity.

I will be adding pieces as they come to be, so visit as often as you would like.

I am earth-friendly and try to reduce, re-use and recycle whenever I can. For that reason, orders may be shipped in packaging that I have collected in the process of receiving materials that I use in creating my jewelry. Only the packages that are in good shape will be reused-no duct tape, I promise:).

All the wire work in my pieces are crafted by me.
Beads, lobster claw clasps, leather and any fibers used are from outside sources.

 
Sunny Greetings

I love this guy! He's a garden stake that lives by my mailbox and (hopefully) makes the mail person a little happier when he/she sees his face.

I shot this one evening when my son and I were wandering in the yard at dusk. I enhanced it a bit and I really like the vibrancy of the colors in the morning glory vine and closed flower.
