Time to bring on the artful bling!

It's time to peek at what's new from Elements by Jill Schwartz...

 Her new creations were just posted to the site 
and this artful bling is worth a peek!
Created in Great Barrington, MA they are laden with lush details and a certain retro glam style....I love them all.

Here are my current picks for fave necklaces...
I might have to treat myself to one, I am just not sure I can resist any longer!


And here are my fave earrings....


Thanks to Jill for being so wonderful to work with over the years...
it's an honor to sell this truly talented woman's work.

I'm a Romantic!

I am completely honored that the editors of Romantic Homes (thanks Meryl and Jacqueline!!)
 invited me to submit for their annual 
"Romantics Issue" where they feature women entrepreneurs...designers...artists...adventurers...
who epitomize the "romantic lifestyle" 
so appreciated by their readers...
This arrived in the mailbox yesterday...
What I wrote comes from my heart and I hope you will seek out the issue to share it...

"As a romantic, I find beauty in the color and texture of everyday life.  I then work to share what I see with an enthusiasm that’s infectious.  It’s a choice to see the possibility of each day…perhaps it comes from a willingness to believe in serendipity and all the meanderings of imagination."

....a whole lot more and then...

"In business I cannot help but share my passion for handmade. Something that comes from the hands, comes from the heart; I have built my business sharing the talents of other romantic and inspiring women who create the most beautiful folk art.
Everyday, I make time for beauty. I look for the lovely and let it feed my soul."


In the spread you'll see me, and what makes me tick, and I love that some of my fave artists are included in the images too...Jill Schwartz, Juile Arkell, Letty Worley, Lisa Leonard, 
Jennifer Lanne and Karin byDesign.
 This new issue is a true delight...so many great women included...so many heartfelt ideas 
and notions to warm winter and roll us toward Valentine's Day...

Thanks again to those that made this feature possible. I am thrilled. 
xxoo Jen
