Happy 25th Anniversary!

I was absolutely blessed when David's step-dad, Howard, wanted me to create a special gift to give his lovely bride for their 25th wedding anniversary. Jane is not one to wear jewelry, so I had to be mindful of putting something together that would be flattering and dainty, but also something she would enjoy wearing. 

Howard had some great ideas - he wanted to have the birthstones of all of her children some how incorporated into the design. While that made the task a little more challenging, I was excited to try my hand at creating something would be lovely on Jane, while also incorporating his requests.

I was able to find Swarovski crystals in all of her children's birthstones, as well as both her and Howard's birthstones. After a bit of trial and error I put together this creation and added a silver crystal in the middle as an embellishment to commemorate their silver anniversary.




Nothing brought me more delight than to see how much both Howard and Jane loved the earrings! 

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY MOM & DAD!!!

Oui, Oui Paris!

Since I am unable to go to Paris right now, I thought I would bring Paris to me! I took some Eiffel Tower charms and a few of my favorite colored crystals and created a simple set of earrings that allow me to have a little bit of Paris with me wherever I go. I figured why should only the Parisians have all the fun?! :-)

What To Wear To A Symphony?

What do you wear when you're given free tickets to the symphony? Why some pearls and a cool fascinator, of course! Pearls dress up any simple outfit and creates a more sophisticated look. I am not a huge fan of pearls, and yet my simple black dress took on a more polished appearance with these pearl cluster earrings and necklace.




Glass pearls are an inexpensive alternative to the real thing. They are also available in many different colors. So if you would like to dress up something that has been sitting around in your closet, let me know! Drop me an email!

Revive Your Wardrobe

We all have a closet, whether it is big or small, full of clothes. Some clothes are more functional and practical than others, so they tend to get more milage. However, what about those items that don't see the light of day? Do they not make it out of the closet because you don't know how to match them with other well used items?

I completely understand your dilemma ... 

Accessorizing is one way to bring new life to those items that are collecting dust. If you aren't feeling confident about your skills in accessorizing, why not sport some earrings? They could be your statement piece that helps to pull your outfit together. It's a cheap way to jazz up an outfit, even a simple outfit comprised of a plain white shirt and jeans. 

You don't need expensive gold and silver stuff. Going bijou is inexpensive and can be fashionable, exquisite, elegant, and eye catching. What about trying some cool chandelier earrings? I always get compliments when I wear chandelier earrings. They bring a little sparkle to any outfit! Or, try on a pair of beautiful glass bead earrings with that dress that has been sitting in the closet for the past year.


The neat thing about earrings is that you can go WILD with earrings without looking like a fashion faux pas!

Check out how Denise pulled together her outfit with some filagree teal daisy earrings made by leicoconut.


Isn't it amazing what a pair of earrings can do? It adds a little splash to an outfit, and it also extends the color scheme that Denise is wearing from head to toe!

Drop me an email if you would like a pair of earrings made for you!
