JuJu Magic




It is 2010 & I am busily getting ready for my 1st gallery show of the year in Seattle at the Facere Jewelry Art Gallery.This is a precious little gem of a gallery, which just goes to show you that it isn't the size that counts but the quality. If any of you live in Seattle, it's not to be missed. The show dates are January 27-February 20. here is the link:

The show is called JuJu Magic & has inspired me to create this new work, & I think that 2010 is indeed going to be a magical year.
I am posting a few pix of 2 of the pieces I have created for this show. The model in the middle is my beautiful daughter, Meara. She is also the photographer & the designer of this blog!!

Christmas Eve


Here it is Christmas Eve. We finally got into the holiday spirit today as we cleaned the house made a wreath for the door & had our favorite people over for dinner. A good excuse to clean. The bathtub backed up of course Murphy's Law, & it looked like the sink was bubbling into the tub also. Ouy!! So Brad bucketed & cleaned it all out & no one will ever know. We will deal with it tomorrow, merry xmas!!. Our friends came & went we are all stuffed to the gills. & watching the end of "It's a Wonderful Life!!" Here is a pic of our front door.

I've decided to open an Etsy account to sell my work on. It reaches more people & is easier to do than on this blog. They take paypal & customers can choose to buy from Etsy or come directly to me. Here is the etsy shop info:


I would like to send out peace, love, prosperity, abundance, good health & may all beings be happy, to everyone in the universe!! Life is a gift!!
till next time!!!

Birds on Wheels

These Bird Necklaces are from a new series I am introducing this year. They are all one-of-a-kind, so no two are alike. I hand saw each of them, fabricating & texturing, using sterling silver for the bodies, 14-karat gold for the eyes, & the wheels are made from guitar string nuts & old pocketwatch parts. Prices vary from $75 to $250 depending on size and how elaborate it is.


Bird #1 (both sides shown above)
2" x 1.5 "x .75"
$195, includes 16" or 18" ball chain

Jewelry for Sale: Chair Necklaces

Everyone asks me, "Why Chairs?"... Well I don't really know why. I just love them!!! The first chair was made because I was doing a gallery show of my carved work & I wanted to put a "Pear on a Chair" because it rhymed, so I made one. And it evolved from there.


Basic Chair Necklace
1.25" x 3/4" x 5/8", sterling silver
$80 without chain

Sprouting Chair Necklace
1.25" x 1" x 5/8", sterling silver
$98 without chain


Library Chair Necklace
1.50" x 3/4" x 5/8", sterling silver
$98 without chain

Chains are sterling silver & are available in sizes 16 inch & 18 inch lengths, starting at $20 each. 20 inch and 24 inch also available for slightly more.
