Now on to the important stuff.
Last summer I attended a local festival. This festival is pretty much focused on homemade/handmade things. I absolutely love going to festivals. They always have great food (funnel cake) and really unique things. While we were browsing all the booths I spotted a booth that had paintings of Mona Lisa and a Greek Goddess but on these paintings a real necklace and earrings were added. It added a different element seeing a necklace around Mona Lisa's neck. I wish I had taken a picture and I could have sworn that I did but I can't find it on my phone. Who knows?
Anyway, this lady makes the most romantic, whimsical jewelry.
I instantly fell in love. All the pieces are handmade and each one unique. I picked up the necklace in the picture above while I was there. I also spotted a necklace and earring set that I wanted but I didn't get it. I went home and thought about that necklace and I gave in. I drove back to the festival the next day and bought it.
See why I had to have it? It is one of my favorite pieces of jewelry. I have a small frame so it's rare that I can find a necklace that falls exactly where I want it to. Honestly the picture doesn't do it justice.
Artist Lisa Schwartz makes all of the jewelry. She makes necklaces, earrings, pins, hair clips, and some home décor. All of her pieces are gorgeous and they come with a warranty. I think her prices are really good considering the time, effort, and skill it takes to make this jewelry.
This is the next set I'd like to have.
Isn't that beautiful?
If you like whimsical jewelry, you have to check out Icis Collection her website. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
Until next time
