the spotted leaf necklace.
i pick up all kinds of things when i’m out on my strolls. most of the time they’re pretty ordinary objects: feathers, insect wings, tree bark, a rusted nail (i saved a tire!), and the occasional decaying leaf. i bring them home, show my husband (he laughs) and then carefully arrange the object in my […]
layer cake: vintage brass pressing and leather necklace.
just feast your eyes on this layered diamond of royal hues! somehow this necklace manages to make a statement (as it is rather large) while maintaining an effortless appeal. it’s both modern and vintage. boldly feminine and unapologetic. i’ll take two. beware: this piece carries a rich weight. but it provides so many tactile features […]

circles and shell necklace, version two.
a curious combination of shapes. one hand forged silver strap rivets this vintage mother of pearl button to one circling silver ring, a small silver dome nestles in the hollow of the button meant for stitches, joined by an oxidized sterling silver chain fully equipped with a handmade S-hook clasp and silver disc with my […]
making good use of time.
sometimes the plumber has to pay a visit. sometimes leaks happen in that weird crawl space in the basement and i can’t fix it with the tool kit my dad gave me one christmas when i was in college (didn’t understand at the time what it was for– now, of course, i do). so the […]
