I can’t get over this Nephrite necklace 😍✨

The mossy green paired with the gold is just so good, and I love how the asymmetrical design makes it feel a little unexpected while still being easy to wear. Add the matching earrings and you’ve got a set that looks effortlessly put together.

And honestly? This design would look amazing with just about any gemstone in this shape. Labradorite, Black Onyx, Strawberry Quartz... I already have a list of versions I’d love to make 😭💚

It’s Thursday which means… new gemstones are dropping ✨

28 new gemstone strands are being loaded into the shop… you already know I’m excited 😊

Amethyst, Brazil Amazonite, Green & Red Strawberry Quartz, and SO much more. These are some bigger faceted stones (think 9x14mm & 13x16mm) and they absolutely make a statement in any design. These stones demand attention 😭✨

And pleaseeee do not skip past the Rainbow Fluorite strand because my mind was genuinely blown when I saw that one 🌈✨

Birds of a feather find their perfect home in this sweet little bracelet stack 🐦🌼✨

Surrounded by sunny yellow porcelain sunflowers and bright enamel daisies, these tiny birds rest in a miniature wearable garden full of cheerful summer charm 💛

The kind of stack that feels like sunshine in jewelry form ☀️

New goodies are starting to load into the shop and I’m honestly so excited about this collection ✨

I found some beautiful Nepalese pendants and beads with the richest jewel-tone color combinations. They have such a timeless feel and the craftsmanship on these is incredible. Every piece has its own little personality and unique details that make them so fun to create with.

I also added all 12 birth month flowers in a two-tone finish with gunmetal and gold plating and they turned out SO pretty. 🌸 I love the idea of wearing your own flower along with someone you love.

And the Amber… you know I can never leave Amber behind when I find it 😂 There are 12 strands in all kinds of warm colors, shapes, and tones. Some are soft and glowy, some are deep and rich, and every single strand feels special.

This launch has so many fun pieces to mix, layer, and create with. I really think there’s something here for everyone 💚

It’s Thursday, which means I have new Czech glass to share ✨🌊💚

This collection is full of the prettiest ocean blues, shimmering finishes, and shapes that catch the light so beautifully. There are 15 strands total, with lots of blue + gold moments (if you know, you know 😉).

Czech glass has always been such a passion of mine. I never get tired of the endless color combinations, unique shapes, and artistry behind every strand. Even more special is the history — generations of families in the Czech Republic have spent their lives preserving these beautiful glassmaking traditions, and you can truly feel that craftsmanship in every piece. ✨💙
