IDEAS!

When you think of jewelry you don't have to think of glittering gems or gold and platinum.


Try something new....think of ART!


Think of color and design and of something to perk up your most casual clothes.
Think of abstract paintings and sculpture in a contemporary gallery.

Now...
Think of a little bit of that art coming into your life....
...affordably....easily
!

Remember what Picasso, the "father of modern art" has said:
"Art washes away from the soul
the dust of everyday life."

TRY IT!

CONVERSATION STARTERS!

Here's a great idea from the book, "Clever Ways to Create Your Own Luck", by author Susan RoAne:

"Wear something that invites people to talk to you.  Madeleine Albright, the former US Ambassador to the United Nations, often wore a large brooch
because it was a conversation starter."

Hmmm!....Well....these
pins (brooches) have great color, interesting designs and....
many are large enough to give the above idea a try!

They start conversations because people are curious as to what they are made of.
The
clay makes them look like tiny paintings, collages, sculptures.

The abstract designs are often reminiscent of the view from the airplane window....
meandering streams, odd-shaped lakes and forested areas. Or they may evoke memories of vacations enjoying ocean waves or of rugged western landscapes.
 Or the fun of seeing interesting shapes in clouds.

These are "imagination pins". Look carefully! What do you see?

And remember!....pins can be worn on purses, hats, totes, as well as on scarves and lapels!

NECKLACE LENGTHS


1. 14 to 16 inches is considered a choker and goes with any type neckline and any occasion.

2. 17 to 19 inches is a good pendant length and can go with high necklines (crew) or quite low.

3. 20 to 24 inches is good for casual or business dressing but might be too low to display a pendant.



The necklaces on these pages feature a pendant on a cord with few, if any, extra beads.
This makes them casual and light-weight and the silky or soft leather cord feels good on the neck.

But wait!...

If you own strands of very small beads, a strand can be worn together with one of the pendants on the pendant page.  Treat yourself to a pendant whose colors will harmonize with a strand of beads you already own and wear the two together for variety and a dressy touch!  WOW!!
