Oh hey, have you seen my jewelry line?

Yeah, it's something.

The older I get, the more I find my jewelry style becoming like my mom's - and the more I find myself sneaking into her jewelry box to look, and perhaps to borrow. ;)  I am not much of a jewelry girl.  Never have been.  I like earrings, and some necklaces.  I rarely ever wear rings.  But this past summer I realized I want special jewelry to pass to my girls one day - rings not just from my 30's and 40's and on, but something special from my 20's, maybe something I bought myself because it was beautiful and bold.

Of course, my dad has now given me a special ring for my teen's and one for my 20's.  :)

(very) pretty and different. :)

Another piece from Allison Cecil 

In case you hadn't noticed... I love basic metals.  I really enjoy wandering through the Etsy online shops of metalworkers.  I love talking with those who set up booths at Folkfest too.  They're amazing.  I met a woman this past summer whose husband had learned from his parents, and when she got marrried, he taught her.  They ran a store together.   

These are a few of my recent favorites.
