Sorry, I couldn’t help it. Because even after living in Oklahoma on and off for the past ten years I’m still just a PA girl at heart! I might just need this necklace to say it on a daily basis. (Just in case you’re not a fan of the Keystone State, others are available as well…)

Posted In jewelry, wear itFinch Metal has the most delicate looking handmade jewelry. And what makes it even better – yes, it’s possible – is that every month 10% of all proceeds are donated to a different charity. As if I needed even more of a reason to buy their goods!
There’s no better way to kick off yet another monotonous Monday than with a giveaway, wouldn’t you agree? So let’s do it!
This week you have the chance to win your very own pair of gorgeous Vinea and Folium earrings from YellowGoat. Vinea and Folium is latin for “vine and leaf” which is fitting – the design of these earrings was inspired by a trip to a fishing village with lawns full of vines! Each earring is two parts, a small vine pendant and a larger leaf charm. I’d wear them to dress up for a night out or to the inevitable summer wedding. So pretty!
You know the drill: visit YellowGoat’s shop and comment back with which piece you like best. YellowGoat herself will choose the winner. You have until next Monday, May 4th at noon CST, to leave your comment. Please include your email address or you will not be eligible when the winner is chosen. The winner will be announced shortly after.
Good luck!
Posted In jewelry, wear it, win itI’m in mad love with the laser cut jewelry of molly m designs. Good back story: she’s trained as an architect and after using laser cutting to make architectural models realized it’s potential for jewelry as well. All of Molly’s designs start with a sketch, then are drafted in AutoCAD before being printed on the laser cutter. When possible all of her jewelry is made from sustainable materials. Maybe a little Happy Earth Week is in order for yourself, no? I’m especially partial to her earrings…

Carl, a second generation silver jewelry maker is the craftsman behind Go or Send Jewelry. His shop is full of pendants, bracelets and rings that any spoon or fork would be proud to be bent into.
If I had to pick only one style of jewelry that expressed my likes and who I am it would be Becky Kelso’s. I love wearing big stones, but in a way that’s not gaudy. Things that are polished, but not too polished are my preference in every aspect of life. And beautiful colors that don’t shout at you are completely me. Here are just a few of my favorites from her line, definitely check out her site for more!

World’s Smallest Postal Service.
Here’s how it works: You write a letter and I transcribe it onto tiny stationary (1 x 1.5 inches) with a magical transcription device. It then goes into a tiny envelope which gets addressed, stamped, and sealed with a miniscule wax seal with your initial on it. The letter then goes into a see-through folded coin case and is packaged up with a magnifying glass in a larger glassine envelope, finished off with a large “World’s Smallest Letter” wax seal. It is then put in a sturdy mailer for shipping.
Two of a Kind. (via Josh Spear)
Many rings have been exchanged that symbolize a bond between two people… but few come close to the Two of the Kind ring in the romance department. Delivered in one piece, it’s meant to be broken by you and a loved one into two, perfectly matched rings. That way, when together, you really do “complete each other”.
