North Beach Festival 2012

Perusing the wares on a breezy Sunday afternoon...

The owner of these amazing eyes was kind enough to let me take a few shots while she tried on a new headpiece.

Headpieces! Okay, the bottom one is actually a neckplate, but the top is a new direction in mesh headpieces.

Featured in Etsy newsletter!

And it explains a lot.

My Etsy shop sort of blew up today and I was a bit baffled until my friend, Amber (who obviously pays better attention - thank goodness), congratulated my making it into Etsy's latest newsletter. We're 'Fresh in Fashion.' Fantastic! While I do get love from Etsy-goers, the environment is a bit of a stretch for my jewelry, and this surprise boost is a treat. It's always fun to see which pieces new eyes gravitate toward.
Thank You, Mary!

Mesh Jewelry at the SF North Beach Festival

I'm a (grateful!) addition to the 58th annual North Beach Festival - one of SF's oldest summer street events - with art, music, and food in SF's 'Little Italy.' If you're planning to head over there on Saturday or Sunday -- please come say Hi! The booths run along Grant, Green, and Columbus; I'll be on Grant at Filbert, in Booth 1520 with other local designers and artists - right across from Maccharini Creative Design. I hope to see you there!


The 58th Annual North Beach Festival
