Trunk Show at On A Mission in Claremont this Saturday!

One of my wonderful reps, Shirley DeMarco is bringing my line along for a trunk at On A Mission this Saturday in Claremont. If you are in the area stop by and say hello and maybe even get some early holiday shopping done. I know Halloween just happened and it's only November 4th, so for lots of you it's too early to start thinking about doing your holiday shopping. I'm personally such a dork about Christmas that I've already started shopping, planning decorations, buying holiday scented candles, and scoping out DIY gifts to make this year. I'll be pinning lots of these DIY ideas, decorations, and wrapping ideas on my holidays yes! Pinterest board if you want to follow along with my holiday obsession.

Inspiration from the Contemporary Crafts Show this weekend.

I went to check out the Contemporary Crafts Market in Pasadena on Saturday and the first thing I noticed was that my friend and I were much younger than most of the other shoppers. It's definitely a completely different crowd than say Renegade Craft Fair, Unique LA or Patchwork!

I forgot to take any pictures while I was there but I saw a few of my favorite jewelry designers as well as found some new favorites. There was definitely an interesting mix of work there but I'm still not sold on whether it's the right show for my collection. Here are some pieces from a few of my favorites that I saw at the show. 

Romantic Rust Cuffs by Kit Carson

Pyrite Sun Medallion from Lisa Kim Fine Jewelry's Windlord Collection

Bamboo, Silver, & Gold Bracelet by Fred & Janice Tate Designs

Cuffs and Rings by Jivita Jewelry 

I'm personally wanting to add her Cactus Spike Necklace to my collection.

Oh Opal OAK Necklace by Sharon Kaplan Jewelry

I'll definitely be picking up some new earrings from her Enamel Collection.

I did also see some great ceramic, wood, glass, and fibers work at the show. But sadly I can't find their work online to share so maybe next time I'll remember to take some pictures to share.

Art, Jewelry, Music, Food and Fun next Sunday at the Brentwood Art Festival!

I'll be busy in the studio all week finishing up lots of jewelry for the Brentwood Art Festival on San Vicente Blvd in Brentwood next Sunday from 10am-6pm. There will be lots of great art, music, and food to keep you entertained. I'll be in booth 3058 so if you make it out be sure to stop by and say hello.

A visit to the brand new Todd Reed Studio in Venice!

I was so thrilled to take a tour on Friday of the beautiful new space that Todd Reed Jewelry has turned in to his new Venice home. I've been following along on Instagram and the Todd Reed blog, watching this space come to life. So when some of his Boulder team came to town and offered to give me a tour I of course jumped at the chance. I have been a huge fan of everything Todd Reed for years now, so I am so happy they chose Abbot Kinney as the location for the showroom and studio.

Everyone in the showroom was so friendly and welcoming. It was so much fun trying on some of the jewelry and wandering through the three story space. This was the first time I tried on any of his jewelry and got to see the craftsmanship, beauty, and attention to detail up close. They will actually be making the men's line right here in the studio. While I was there one of the jeweler's was working on a men's ring with beautiful raw diamonds. So you know the metalsmith and tool geek inside me was happy to get a peek at the process.

The new studio has multiple balconies, fantastic art, and a giant living wall made by GSky Plant Systems which is home to 1,400 plants. If you are visiting LA or live here you should definitely stop in and say hello to the staff at 15ll Abbot Kinney Blvd in Venice.

Thanks so much to Liz for giving me the tour, it was so nice to meet you in person, off of Instagram.

West Elm Summer Soiree Recap

I had such a lovely time at a pop up event with fantastic local designers at West Elm Santa Monica this past Friday. I'm already looking forward to planning another event with their staff for late summer/early fall. The layout of the store was absolutely beautiful and it worked so perfectly to set up on this gorgeous console table.

Nook Console

The Dakota Weekender

Clark & Madison  stood out as one of my favorites from the event. Their bags are handcrafted here in Los Angeles and absolutely gorgeous. 

Gavin Luxe & Company was also there with their candles that smelled absolutely amazing. I couldn't decide on a scent at the event but since it's summer I think the Sunny + Beach sounds perfect. 

Thank you so much to the entire staff of West Elm in Santa Monica for organizing this wonderful event, I had a blast and am already looking forward to the next one.
