Spring 2013

I love this time of year when things begin to grow and bloom, the temperature is just right, and the sky is a lovely bright blue.

This Spring, I've gathered a mix of lush emerald greens, vibrant pinks and oranges, and sweet pastels to celebrate the season.  I hope you'll enjoy the new designs!

Sleeping Beauty Turquoise

Well, I'm still toiling away in the studio in preparation for the upcoming holidays. Thought I would drop in and share one of the lovely pieces that found its way in the shop this week.

Giselle Earrings with Sleeping Beauty turquoise, gold and a touch of silver

These turquoise drops are from the Sleeping Beauty Mine in Arizona.  Wonder what the heck that looks like?  Well here are some pictures:

By the way, I've had several questions this month about sales for the upcoming holiday season so I thought I would throw this out there for all to see:

* I will be having my annual Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale this year from 11/23 - 11/26 (on my website & on Etsy)

* Yes, there will be a coupon code especially for my FB fans to use during that time...but, no I don't know what it will be yet

I haven't figured out all the details, so that's all I can say about it right now. I will release the details of the sale on Monday 11/19.  Check my Facebook page for details http://www.facebook.com/KandeJewelry

Elizabeth Necklace. Ametrine.

I wrapped up some lovely projects this weekend including the newest version of my Elizabeth necklace.

In case your wondering, the purple and yellow stone is called ametrine.  Ametrine is a naturally occurring mix of amethyst and citrine.  It is one of my favorite gemstones.  Here's an example of what it looks like in a more natural state...

Now I'm off  to clean up my studio. I found myself in a bit of a creative whirlwind this weekend and moved into each new project without putting up the elements from the previous projects.  Now the top of my jewelry bench is a sparkling, cluttered mess!
