 Please keep in mind that nearly any earring design can be made with another stone. This is especially significant in the case of crystal. While some people like to see EACH color available, it is impossible to post them all. Go ahead, just imagine the earring you like in the color  you might like. There are so many options available! Just ask!
SEPT. 2015 ~
Where else can you find such fabulous stones? The stones I choose are not only beautiful, but often way ahead of the trends. I was making jewelry with crazy agate years ago. It is now the "latest" in designer stones. I choose stones for their beauty and their rare availability. Often, just a few strands are available to me ~Never to be found again in the exact shape or size! These jewelry items are truely one-of-a-kind!!

MARCH 2015~
Designing jewelry with precious metals such as Sterling silver  has become quite a challenge with Silver prices rising as fast as they have. As with most jewelry designers, changes are being made to accommodate the increase in cost. Less silver is being used in jewelry design. In addition, Copper is becoming very popular, as it has a rich warm tone. Unfortunately, all metals are surging in price.  Silver is a precious metal, second only to gold. Most of the silver I purchase is made right here in the USA. It is excellent quality. Most people that are allergic to metals, can wear .925 Sterling silver, MYSELF  included. It is said that silver is the most "reflective" of all the metals.  It is easy to care for ~ just wipe with a soft cloth. I hope you like the new designs with mixed metals!

      Wow, Spring is right around the corner! So much has crossed my desk in jewelry designs.  I like to keep updated on what is new in several of the popular catalog lines.... and in the finer stores.  I can say that I am very confident that I am offering the very best quality in gemstones and silver. The value is exceptional. 
      Several times a year, I set out to hand pick the gemstones and silver that is used in my jewelry pieces.  It is a laborous process.  But, it is well worth it in the end.  I like to find unique cuts of stone and love the unusual.  All the pieces that I make are designed to last for years and years.
 
Forever Gems ~ Lasting Treasures...... treasures from the earth... that have been around for thousands of years, designed with attention to every detail. Designed to LAST!
 
       I am so pleased when ever a customer purchases an item and I can see that they are happy.  Once they try a piece on that is made of natural gemstones, they cant believe how great it feels. The quality speaks for itself.  But the smooth, cool stones... they are the treasures.
       I stand behind everything that I make. I work to keep my prices well below retail  prices for the same quality.  And  jewelry catalog lines, there is just no comparison.
I have heard many stories of expensive L. S. jewerly that  is production made, breaking after just a few wearings.  Recently, at M**ys', I have priced jewelry that is comparable in style to what I am currently designing.  Earrings for $50-$70!! And  I wont even get into the quality.   
       In the coming weeks, I will be working on many new things.  I continue to make the same designs I love, with the focus on gemstones. That is my passion.  Most of my jewelry is intended for wear either dressed up or with jeans and a T-shirt. I really believe it to be that versatile ~ with the exception of  1-2 pieces.
     Please consider a jewelry party. This is an excellent opportunity to see and feel all the stones and jewelry in one place.  It is a casual time, a great time for friends to meet and try the jewelry on. Remember, it is cash and carry! And the hostess gets a free necklace or bracelet and earring set!!                  
                                                                  Sincerely,
                                                                                            Karen
