Autumn is Here!
Autumn has arrived and with it I’ve been enjoying the beautiful fall foliage and the much more livable temperatures! Oklahoma gets very hot in the summer and Autumn is always a welcome respite before the cold winter sets in!
Autumn is also my favorite time for fashion! I love the return of boots, sweaters, jackets and all things fall attire! Of course, that also means it’s time for beautiful Autumn inspired jewelry!
Sterling Silver with 14kt gold dots, garnets and citrine are the perfect fall combination!
My favorite autumn gemstones are agates with the rich browns, reds and yellows, citrine, tourmaline in the darker colors (deep greens, browns) and garnets. Although, I’m partial to just about any gemstone.

Whatever your fancy or favorite Autumn color combination, we have a great selection to choose from! I hope you will get a chance to check out all of our new and beautiful jewelry.

Creative Side Jewelry Academy
This past November I was able to attend the Hollow Form and Tube Setting intensive class at the Creative Side Jewelry Academy in Austin, Texas.
This amazing class gave me the chance to expand my skill set with the hollow form technique and work on improving my tube setting skills as well.
The class started with making a ring that is hollow in the middle. We started with flat sterling silver sheet, with some of the sheet cut into strips for the ring shank and sides of the hollow form. I opted to texture the sterling silver on the outside of the sheet to give the final ring a bit of light texture
The challenge was getting everything soldered correctly and without shifting. The instructor was great in walking us through all of the steps and every one of us finished up our projects with success.
The class was great! I learned so much in a short amount of time that will really improve my work flow and the quality of the pieces I make! It was really an invaluable experience! I will be adding some new pieces to the website this next year that will feature this new technique.
