make | peyote stitch earrings.
I’ve been obsessively making these 3D peyote stitch triangle earrings for a few weeks now. I’m in love with the statement they make and the endless color combinations. I also tried my hand at turning one into a large pendant that can fit through a chain around your neck and gifted it to my mum…

f.o. | finger knit necklace.
I’ve always wanted to take a stab at finger knitting, but no projects screamed out to me. Until PurlBKnit’s Brandi Harper and her brilliant finger knitted necklaces with gorgeous t-shirt yarns, sold in kits, no less. This was such a quick and instantly gratifying make. It took about five minutes for a million compliments on…

I haven’t done enough beading lately. I have too many maker interests, and so, something has to give. I go through fits and spurts…

A new turquoise drop necklace from The Vamoose, an etsy shop I quite adore. The chain is 27-inches long, which is just how I like my necklaces. Gorgeous.

Of Graham Greene, Dentures, and Dejarnette?
Graham Greene once famously noted of himself and men, “I had very good dentures once…some magnificent gold work…It’s the only form of jewelry a man can wear that women fully appreciate.” If only this were true…of both men and women; then I should not find myself drooling over the hand-made necklaces from New Orleans artist…
