This morning, I took my dad to the main square of Coyoacán. We decided to honor each of those who are no longer with us, by celebrating life.
Our hearts were filled with images of happy families, ornate food, playful art, and the saturated colors of one of the most festive days of the year.
Blessed
This beautiful orchid is now part of my home. Thank you dear Nat, for adding more color to my life, and thank you, kind friends, for your messages of love and encouragement!
May each of us find ways to be true to ourselves, and may joy always guide our way!
Break
I’m going to take a break from my jewelry bench, I have a mild case of tendonitis in my right thumb that needs time to heal.
In the meantime, I will work on projects that don’t require physical strength, such as sewing, painting and teaching. I will miss working with metal, but I am sure that I’ll return refreshed and full of new ideas.
Dinosaur Bones
These are the bones of our ancestors. If they had not become extinct 65 million years ago, we would not be here. In the same way, without your sincere support and kind words of encouragement, I would not have come so far.
Thank you for joining me as I am. I feel much stronger and lighter.
Recollection
Many of the jewelry pieces I design come from memories or unclear visions.
I vaguely recall a ring my mother often wore when I was little, but I can’t remember its exact shape, only that it was long and rectangular and looked fit for royalty.
I discover the image of a beautiful bracelet in a book on African art, only to look closely and realize it is the roof of a circular hut.
I am fascinated by a necklace worn by a woman walking towards me on the street, and when she approaches I realize it was the reflection of the sun on her blouse.
Recollection ring.
Handmade with 100% recycled sterling silver.
Soon in my online shop.
