While we are truly aware that this is still August many of us are preparing for the new school year. Whether it is preparing a child for kindergarten or graduate school we feel the end of summer approaching. It is in these last hot days of summer that I begin to think of designing pieces that will take us easily from summer to fall. Still warm, still light, but allowing the wearer to pass effortlessly from summer to fall. Those were my thoughts when I studied my workbench. I found some Czech glass with such a sparkle that it caught my eye. Perhaps because it was from a country I had just visited or maybe it was the way it reflected the sunlight, regardless, it was the focal point of my newest pieces....
But I'm still using plenty of pearls and restocked my inventory of pearl-leather pieces. I'll be at the Ligonier Country Market this Saturday, August 13th, 2016 if you want to stop by and check them out.
Also....The Artful Affair is taking shape and on my calendar for October 1st, so please mark yours!
All the best to you,
