     Have you ever come across a color (in a sunset, a flower, a work of art) that really drew you in? I sometimes find that perfect hue in just the right moment; my eyes drinking in the beauty and filling my spirit. This happened with a sapphire I picked up recently, it literally made me gasp and I knew it was mine.  I’m not sure if it’s just the artist in me but I’ve been pondering this rainbow palette that is our reality. My recent trip to India offered such a rich visual feast at every glance. Buildings...

Hi friend! I hope you’re enjoying fall wherever you are. I’m sipping green tea and lighting up about the idea of finding treasure. As I’ve been exploring this theme of hidden treasure, my last few blog posts focused on what’s hidden inside of us. But today I have my sights on the physical, gold coin and gems, kind of treasure.  Whenever I hear stories of people unearthing artifacts in their backyards or even scoring valuable antiques from thrift stores, I feel the thrill of possibility.

A map would be nice wouldn’t it? For this bumpy road called life–I wouldn’t mind if someone were to point out which were the dead ends, the bridges to something better, the places where we might strike gold.

So far it looks like there will be a few rings, some earrings, a new charm, and a mix of silver and gold. I might add on a couple more things before I send out the waxes for casting! I will keep you posted as to when these will come out, hoping for September. A few newsletters ago I talked about hidden treasure...

Today I have a story for you, a little jaunt down memory lane. First I have to say how perfectly fitting this is with the recent theme I’ve been exploring: hidden treasure (if you missed it it’s the theme of my last collection and the other half I’m working on now). The other day I was searching for old photos when I cracked open an old CD book–yes I still have those–and found these photos from 18 years ago I thought I’d lost forever!! Once upon a time I lived in the Santa Cruz mountains and started a rock shop...
