See You This Weekend at UniqueLA Santa Monica!

We're at Table #13 and are ready for the good times, free drinks, great design, and yummy food. All the info can be found HERE.

Happy Friday!!

UniqueLA Booth Decor

Vendors at UniqueLA are known for their amazing booth and table displays that showcase amazing style and detail at the shows. They fill every inch of their space with design, color, and aspects. It's each booth and table is like visiting each vendor's showroom. I love it because each vendor takes the time to cultivate their style and present their brand and aesthetic to the world.

With all of this in mind, I created a color scheme and planned to go high (wall display) and have lots of levels. Here are a few sneak peeks at what will be at my table.

The colors range from minty green and pistachio to pink and hot pink to lavender and plum.






Ribbon board to display handmade cards.




Birds! These were originally a display at a shoe store and were given to me when the display's season was over. They are a light wood tone, so I painted one side a shade of pink so that the gold necklaces would stand out.

I'm super excited and really hoping the look of the table remains cohesive and showcases my style/aesthetic. Can't wait to show you all the finished product!

Happy Thursday :)

Bluff Walk, Blue Skies

It's been a busy 2 weeks for us with work, traveling, and jewelry shows, so a walk on the Ellwood Bluffs on a clear afternoon was necessary. We tend to get wrapped up in activities, that taking a short break from it all is a perfect way to relax and recharge. Here are a few photos from our walk.


Perfectly blue.


I love that it's so serene and private.




Perfect.

Hope you are all having a wonderful week! We're almost to the weekend and I'm excited because we will be at UniqueLA's summer show.

Farmers Market Freshness

A fun fact about the Santa Barbara area is that there is a Farmers' Market you can visit every day of the week. There's one downtown, in Goleta, a few blocks from the beach, and on one of the more popular strips, etc. All locations are perfect, bringing each part of the city a chance for fresh and local foods and flowers.

I love that we live 2 blocks from ours. And on summer afternoons, strolling along and through the booths are quite perfect.


Fresh produce and bright colors have me ready to cook.






Fruit baskets are a must purchase.


Honey ♥


Fresh flowers are my fave and also a must purchase.






I love buying local.

How often do you visit your Farmers' Market? What are your must buys?

Connected Hearts Bracelets

As I'm expanding the honey my heart pieces available in sterling silver, I thought why not add a favorite bracelet to the list. We've made connected hearts in gold and silver is now another great option. The hearts are a bit larger, have a round/full look, and the bracelet is still so delicate.








I know most people don't wear silver and gold together, but I love it.


Connected hearts are the new friendship bracelet ;)


The connected hearts bracelets are available in 7 and 7.5 inches in length at my booth and online! (I can also make custom lengths if you like) They're subtle, lovely, and feminine. They share love ♥

Parts of My Weekend

It's been a busy few days over here. We did Art Walk, flyered the town, celebrated a birthday, and drove a lot. The above photo is the view from our spot at ART SQuare!


Keeping it simple and compact in the booth display. We even had a sale section :)


Fresh tacos from Komodo Food Truck.


Headed north.


Prepping for the birthday!


Pinata time! Oh how I'd love to be one of the kiddies who ran up and filled their bags with candy.


Cupcakes were fab. I ate two ;)


Blue sky and ocean from the 101, welcome back to SB.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Walking on Goleta Pier

Summer amazingness has brought us to the beach a lot over the past few weeks. Recently we visited Goleta Beach to take an afternoon walk along the pier. It was perfectly calm, breezy, and just long enough.






Hubs enjoying it.


Little doggies go fishing, too!


All I see is blue and I like it.


Hope Ranch in the distance.


Looking towards UCSB.


Enjoying the sun and breeze.


Palms line Goleta Beach.

Hope that you are enjoying summer!

The Bride Wore...

A close high school friend was married in May. I blogged about her wedding here, and wanted to share some of her photographer's shots. She's beautiful, kind, funny, so happy, and touched my heart when she chose to wear honey my heart as her wedding day jewelry.




The bride wore a pair of gold bead/tiny leaf earrings, triple sparkle necklace, and single sparkle bracelet. Her maid of honor wore a puffy heart necklace.

I am beyond honored to be part of their special day.
