UPDATE, THEY’VE BEEN FOUND!!! I really thought I made this harder but you Duluthians know your city and this beautiful landscape. I hope you’re all getting out and enjoying this beautiful day and giving thanks and giving back. Thanks for playing everyone who came out, it is always such an exciting event for me. More next year! - old post ->”Second piece in the Earth Day Sustainable Jewelry Hunt! You can find these earrings made in recycled sterling silver to highlight Sustainable jewelry practices. Does this look like a beach day to you? Well any day in Duluth is a beach day. Head out for a walk along the tiny bit of exposed sand and look toward the grass (but don’t go tromping through the grass, they’re protected!). Hope you pick the right point of access as we are lucky to have many here in Duluth. Good Luck! Tag me when found so I can call off the hunt! Get out here, it’s beautiful!”

*Drawing closed, the winning number was from Instagram, but thank you to all who participated! It was fun to hear of everyone’s favorite places :) *Happy Earth Day! To participate in my virtual Sustainable Jewelry Hunt to win recycled 14k gold pebble earrings all you have to do is follow me, comment on this post with your favorite place on this beautiful earth and tag two friends who also believe in sustainable practices. You can enter more than once (one post + 2 tags = one entry). One of my favorite places I’ve ever been is Iceland. The landscape unlike any I’ve ever seen and such awesome contrast of dark and wicked to lush and green you can’t help but feel you’re in a fairytale. Adam and I camped around Iceland in 2010 and still dream of the next time we can visit this striking island. Now tell me, where’s your favorite place? Winner will be announced tomorrow at 10am!

Earth Day Sustainable Jewelry Give-away happens tomorrow!! I do this Earth Day Jewelry Hunt to help draw attention to sustainable jewelry practices. In this industry where all materials are derived from the earth it’s our responsibly to demand they are collected in ethical and sustainable ways. Like using recycled or fair-trade metals, fair trade gems, recycled gems and more green studio practices. I’m trying to get better each day and I hope you can join me. On Earth Day, tomorrow at 11am I will post a pic of one of my favorite outdoor spots in Duluth where I have hidden this handmade branch barrette made in recycled sterling silver and then the hunt will be on! To participate virtually to win these handmade recycled 14k yellow gold pebble earrings I will post a picture on here of one of my favorites places in the world and all you have to do is follow me and comment on the photo with your favorite place in nature and tag two friends who would be interested in sustainable jewelry. Feel free to enter more than once (and Duluthians you can play too!) I’m getting excited! This is always such a fun event for me!

Seeking a part time studio assistant 10-15 hours a week.

Top priorities include email, keeping my schedule on track, building inventory, and studio organization.

Happy Birthday Allison! Gorgeous rose-cut opal that is just full of magic and sorcery. It’s like a painting for your finger. Vibrant colors for this vibrant woman commissioned by her thoughtful husband. Can’t wait to see it on you! *side note for my fellow Minnesotans or Northern dwellers, although this video is with a snow backdrop, you should avoid extreme temperatures with this stone. With their water content they can break with subzero temps. Also, be very kind to opals. They are very special but are very soft. Wear with love!

New! 14k yellow gold solitaire with .46ct oval rose-cut diamond. Something so elegant about oval stones.

Thank you all for your feedback! The consensus is most follow me on Facebook or Instagram, minority follow me on both. So I will share some photos of what I’ve been up to! It was a crazy busy fall and winter (each year I keep growing) and this was definitely my peak. I had the chance to work with so many amazing people and make such special pieces for big milestones in their life. Here’s some of what I’ve been up to. (If you’d like to see photos I’ve posted make sure to click the “following” button and not just the “like” button. This will help you keep up with my work!)
