* Revamping Jewelry

06/10/13

I think it’s exciting to revamp old treasures into something new. Often times clients have a collection of loose charms and broken bracelets loaded with treasures given to them or collected on travels. I like offering the service of repair and restyling.One client had me convert an uncomfortable necklace into a fun bracelet. I typically add a shiny new .

* Dad’s Willie Bracelet

12/08/13

When my dad Jake was an Air Force flight instructor in the 1960’s, I’m sure he never thought that someday he’d be creating custom jewelry items & attending button conventions with his eldest daughter Leah. But he does & he has & his latest idea is stellar. While spending the afternoon together recently, we watched a Willie Nelson concert on .

* Gift Giving Made Easy

31/07/13

My client Kay has figured out a way to save herself time & money. Kay prefers to give a sentimental gift for those in her social circle and rather then driving to Kohls or Target, shopping for an hour or scooping up a gift card, Kay simply calls me & tells me 3-5 things her recipient is interested in & .

* Patriotic Trinkets

03/07/13

Do you have items like these lying around in your jewelry box or catch all drawers? I think they are charming and who knows where they originally came from. What is ironic is that I’ve been trying to buy items like these for patriotic bracelets and guess what, they must all be hidden in drawers and closets, they are very .
