Jewelry for an autumn wedding

I recently had the opportunity to create custom jewelry for a friend's bridal party to be worn in her autumn wedding.  Aside from the bride wanting a pendant style, gold-toned necklace with matching earrings I was free to create what ever I wanted.  I gathered up images of a broad range of styles and materials and showed them to the bride to gauge the aesthetic that she was going for.  She ended up really loving the idea of using chocolate and ivory fresh water pearls to match her ladies' chocolate, ivory and mango colors.

Lina

September was another incredibly busy month.  One of the highlights was cat sitting Ms. Lina for a week.  Lina, our neighbor's cat, was the perfect guest as usual.  We adore her and always welcome the chance to watch her whenever we can.  She spent most of the week on Dan's lap but I was able to steal some quiet lap time for a little while on her last night with us.
