Inspired by the Sea

Inspired by a weekend at Cape May New Jersey, I created these necklaces using shell components. The ocean against the blue sky always brings a sense of calm so I used aqua and lime green seed beads to add that feeling of sky and sea to the bottom necklace. I love the spiral of shells and this conus shell pendant is hypnotic. My husband and I enjoyed our 28th aniversary walking the beach and streets of quaint Cape May.

My Logo

When thinking about a name for my new adventure into jewelry making, a drawing in pastels by my son (then 13) sparked something in me. I decided to use his picture as the background for my logo, business cards, earring cards etc. I knew I wanted my jewelry to have an earthy feel so what better name to use than Earth. I have two beautiful boys but the number one girl name on my list was Grace! Always love that name, that word, that concept. The name was born---Graceful Earth.
