Catching Up

It's been a month since I last posted?  Yikes!  I've been a busy little bee.  I took some time off from the shop and the day job to spend time with my son for Spring Break.  Then I took a little more time off and spent it working in the studio - bliss!  Here's a tiny glimpse of what I've been up to...

I bought some pretty, sparkly gemstones!

I started experimenting with mixing leather and gems.  Still a work in progress, but I think the end results will be lovely.

I spent too much time watching the kitty sleep...but he's too cute to resist!

More work in progress

A finally, here's a few completed projects (there are too many to list)...

You can see all the new pieces here. 

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!

To kick-off the new season, I'm having a sale!  Choose your coupon code - SPRING (for 15% off any purchase) or FREESHIPPING (for free shipping - includes international orders).  Sale ends March 11, 2013.  The coupon codes are for use on both my website, www.KristinaHenning.com, and Kande, my Etsy shop.

Julie

How do you know if she is the best friend in the whole world?  When she graciously volunteers to be your model/victim for product shots.  She never says a cross word as you have her poke 30 earrings through her poor little ear, drape her over and over again with necklaces, and push her this way and that way to catch the light.  All in a rush as you try to get this done in a 30 minute lunch break!

The best part of all?  She happily offers to do it again next week!  THANK YOU JULIE!

Hadley

Finally had time to work in the studio a little bit this weekend - yay!  I've had a few requests lately for smaller earrings for everyday wear so I came up with the Hadley earrings.  I love the way these turned out.
