Hi gals – and how was everyone’s Oscar Sunday?!  Was the carpet not fabulous?!  So much to say, where to begin – how about with Zoe Saldana’s Boysenberry piñata dress ?  She looked like a fancy feather duster!  Offset that bottom heavy hitter with the 1928 Morado Amor Flower necklace next time girl!  Courtesy Getty Images  Gabourey Sidibe looked AMAZING, just one little thing missing; a 1928 Midnight Blues Fantasy Floral Necklace !  All JLO needed with her amazing dress was the 1928 Bridal Art Deco Revival Eternity Necklace !      Blue and white/nude/blush were the popular color palettes of the evening.  Avatar Shmavatar!  Kathryn won – awesome – and how fab would the 1928 Art Deco Revival Eternity Brooch be on her little satin clutch?!  Magnifique!    Let’s talk about the guys.  Yawn.  George, I love you but you always look the same.  Taylor Lautner – not sure what you were even doing there but you have looked the same this entire Awards Season!  How about one of the 1928 Crimson Gardens Leafy Drop earrings tucked into the top of your bowtie?  Pinned to your pocket which was missing a pocket square…   As I journaled last week, my Griffy was the best dressed boy in his Fabulous Filigree Burnished Copper Tone Bracelet .  If only he could have strolled the red carpet, what a sight he would make!  “Papa – Paparazzi!”   I’m thrilled the big blue behemoth didn’t take Best Picture.  Too commercial, too stop-motion, acting my beloved audience is what earns you an Oscar.  Look at Mo’Nique, not the hair – the actor – now that was an Oscar-worthy performance!  However, in place of that garden growing out of her head – a nice 1928 Silver Tone Filigree Blue Butterfly Barrette would be a beautiful touch – just a thought.   Loved, loved, loved Steve and Alec  – they looked handsome and were hilarious.  Just the right note to the looooooong evening (thank you Tom Hanks for abruptly ending the madness!) and don’t get me started on Doogie Houser opening the show.  He didn’t need anything!  Can you say “sequin explosion?!”  Someone owns a bedazzler !

Lotsa Love: March Birthday Gift Ideas for Your Girlfriend

Posted on March 11, 2010

Aquamarine White Gold Ring Whether you’ve been with your girlfriend for three months, three years, or a decade, it doesn’t usually get any easier to buy birthday gifts! Given the fact that it can be difficult even to pinpoint what we ourselves would like to be given on our birthday, this isn’t really surprising. There are always the female gift equivalents of socks and ties … but they certainly won’t set her heart ablaze like something personal and well-chosen. Be strong, be creative … resist the temptation to buy her flowers or bath salts, and your effort will be repaid a thousandfold .

It was a beautiful day today in suburban Philadelphia! The sun was out, it was in the low 60s, what else could anyone ask for on a day in early March? Spent my day doing some volunteer work at the library and stopped at Barnes & Noble for a treat – new magazines! Picked up WWD Accessories  – I can’t wait to see what’s happening in the jewelry world for spring/summer. My little contribution to spring styles in jewelry will be my mini collection of aquamarine jewelry that I will post on etsy, once I finish photographing them

Jump Rings Videos

Properly opening and closing jump rings is a pretty important skill to master when making jewelry since jump rings are often used to connect up the various parts and pieces of jewelry items. They are also regularly used on the end of necklaces and bracelets to connect to clasps. I have a pretty good tutorial about jump rings called ” Fixing Jump Ring Problems .” It covers issues such as how to determine a good quality jump ring from one that isn’t that well made as well as opening and closing them correctly so that they stay put.

Saved me LOTS of space! By Tynia Leah Calafiore (Fresno, CA) – See all my reviews I used to keep my necklaces hanging on an over the door purse rack. They would get tangled and broken and I couldn’t see through the huge stack to find what I wanted half the time. (I have about 100 necklaces) This is a really amazing product
