Inspiration - Song Titles
Since each of my jewelry pieces is unique, I try to come up with a different "name" for each of them. I realized recently that very often when I look at the finished piece, whether it's because of the shape or colors of the beads or their arrangement, the first thing I am reminded of is a song. I only hope, since my taste in music is very eclectic, that other people "get" the references.

Brick and Mortar Necklace Version 2.0
Periodically (read not as often as I'd like) I redo (read improve) some of my necklaces and earrings. I find something that I've created a while ago and see again what it was that made me put those specific beads and chain components together and I see something I'd like to change.
That happened yesterday with this necklace. When I looked at it, it seemed to have too many shades of tan, some of which did not set off the amazing brick colored plastic beads as well as they could (read should) so it got taken apart and put back together again with more brick-colored beads mixed only with cream-colored beads. Satisfying (read fun) use of my time!

Bits & Pieces Sari Silk Ribbon Necklace
When I make my necklaces, I always have bits and pieces of vintage chain left over - bits and pieces that I can't bear to waste. So for this necklace, I put them all together, along with some vintage glass beads and silk ribbon made from recycled saris and voila! An eclectic, soft, light and eco-friendly one-of-a-kind piece.
