Blowin' in the Wind

Blowin' in the Wind

How many of you remember the lazy summer days of childhood spent wishing for your hearts desire while blowing dandilion seeds all over the back lawn. This charming focal by Manuel Wutschke reminded me of just that. It's a lovely shape with such a delightful color combination--all bangled up with a viking weave base.

Girl from Ipanema

Girl from Ipanema

This bracelet is not satisfied just to stroll through life un-noticed. It doesn't need to call attention to itself--the style and drama draw the eye and admiration like a beautiful girl turns every head for a lingering glance,as she obliviously strolls the beach. Pure elegance, unaffected, and sure to capture your heart.

Lazy Daze

Lazy Daze

August is the month of vacations, lots of sunshine and warm days. Sometimes I'd like to be my cat when it curls up on the chaise lounge to just soak in the warm sunshine and drift away the day. This bracelet with it's sorbet colors and sunny disposition sets me thinking about the the pleasures of a lazy day when you empty your mind of all your cares and get that lazy daze void of everything but the beauty around you.

Pretty as a Peacock

Pretty as a Peacock

They 'eyes' have it! Wonderful detailed lampwork torched by Manuela Wutschke in very eclectic styles and shapes are full of detail and interest much like the feathers of a peacocks tail. Each bead is a mini work of art--weara museum on your wrist with this simply strung bracelet.

Tuolumne Meadow

Tuolumne Meadow

Have you been to Yosemite in the summertime? The meadows are golden, and brown, turquoise and green..the sky is blue and the rivers and streams are a gurgling, glistening, flowing delight. The beads in this bracelet give me that same 'feel' when I look at the colors and composition. Can you see what I see?

This adorable fishy is strung on a silk ribbon embellished with freshwater pearls on a sterling chain. The slider makes the length adjustable.
