New Custom Order and Lost and Found

I actually got a little bit of a break while the babies were napping today, and finished up a custom order for a friend of my mom's. I love doing custom orders for people who come to my house frequently, because they can just spend some time with my beads and pick out what they would like, and then I put it all together for them. Custom orders make great gifts, too, because let's face it: it's pretty cool to be able to say "Hey, I had this made specially for you". So here it is:This one is sterling chain, jade, brown mother-of-pearl, and a couple of Swarovski crystals. She wanted it to be a little more conservative. That's the great thing about custom orders; they can be as crazy or as simple as you want them to be. I like that this one is simple and delicate. And, of course, it's in my favorite color scheme, green and brown!

In other news, I found a finished enamel today when I was cleaning out my work area. I had completely forgotten about it! It was like finding a $50 bill in your coat pocket; I really liked this one, and I think it just got shoved in a drawer when we moved last year. So here it is:
I love the tulip theme, since Spring is right around the corner. You can check out this piece, and all of our other enamels, at our website. Enjoy!
