Necklaces

Composite

We are shaped by what we love.
— Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Elements

To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and the water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or an evening saunter... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a bird’s nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life.
— John Burroughs

Bold

Warmer weather and lower necklines have inspired me to make short, bold necklaces.


Fish Pendant 7

I've enjoyed making this series. To me, every fish is a character whose nature requires specific elements: thicker wire, more texture, to be larger or smaller and more –or less– abstract.

I know when each one is complete because it lets me know.

Fish Pendant 6

Every morning, I meditate and practice yoga to strengthen the connection with my body.

When I empower my instinctual self and rely less on my rational mind, I create pieces that move me.

Fish Pendant 5

All my charms speak to me.

This one says: among all the stars in the universe there is a place for you. Rest in the inner pool of stillness and flow with life. Your path will unfold day by day.

Fish Pendant 4

I rarely draw what I see. I draw what I feel in my body.
— Barbara Hepworth

Fish Pendant 3

One of the reasons why I don't make commissions is because I like to work with "mistakes" that happen when I create.

A crooked chiseled line can become a rugged texture, making the piece different from what I imagined at the start.

I value everything that takes me beyond the limits of my imagination.

Awakened Series

I will add the Awakened series to my online shop tomorrow, Monday, between 2 and 3 pm, CST.

Shipping during the month of December slows down so much, that the last day I will mail international orders this year is this Wednesday, November 29. After that, you can still purchase from my shop, but I will mail your order after January 5th (orders within Mexico will ship regularly). 

I can cut the rings in this series to fit any size between 5.5 and 11.

All pendants include a 28" darkened sterling silver chain.

Every piece is one of a kind and I do not repeat it. Please sign up here if your want me to email you the minute I post the series to my shop. 


Playful

Playfulness comes when you realize that there is nothing to worry about, nothing to grasp, and no goal to reach.

Inner Stillness

You are responsible for your state of being. Only that. It is the energy that you give out to the world that will enrich or deplete it.

Presence

Here is a gift. I discovered it in Martha Beck's book, Finding your Way in a Wild New World, which I love.


Hand-Sensing Exercise by Eckart Tolle, from his book A New Earth.

Close your eyes and hold out your hand.

Allow yourself to feel your hand.

Ask yourself how – without touching anything, without moving your hand and without looking at your hand – you can know that your hand is still there.

Your mind might say it knows it's there, because it was just there a minute ago.

But there is another way of knowing. You can feel the inside of your hand, a subtle sense of warmth or tingling.

This is the subtle sense of aliveness.
 

If your mind wanders, just return your attention to feel the sensations in your hand.

This hand sensing exercise brings your awareness to the present moment. Do this exercise whenever you can to get in touch with your inner sense of aliveness. 

This inner sense of aliveness is your own conscious presence, your being-ness, the you that you really are, beneath your thinking and beyond your story.

The quality of my life has improved greatly since I began this practice a few months ago. I hope you can try it!
