I've been working on more studly designs (bad pun, sorry) and am loving these circular beauties! check them out in the shop HERE!
In my nearly non-existent spare time, I have been trying to perfect my technique for soldering posts onto my earrings because I have been enamored with the idea of utilizing sterling scrap (between Julie and myself we generate tons of scrap) - it's the eco-friendly part of me I suppose. so now I finally am happy with the results and am introducing these recycled sterling stud earrings into my repertoire! using a combination of solder and fusion, I've been able to solidly attach sterling posts onto wonder...
so I have been searching for this song EVERYWHERE and I cannot find it. sigh. plus it doesn't look like they made a video for it so I am stuck with this version. why are you so elusive, kepano green??????????

so not only is my etsy BFF Julie fantastically talented, now the world of Grey's Anatomy knows it too! Julie was part of the GBK Oscars Gift Lounge, and the lovely Camilla Luddington was all over this gemstone cuff! we all know how fabulous Julie's cuffs are, having already been showcased on The Vampire Diaries! Camilla has to be my favorite new character on Grey's, and the cuff she posed with at the Gift Lounge totally suits both her style and intern Jo's. you can check out the rest of Julie'scelebrity ...
