unexpected love


sometimes we fall unexpectedly in love. For jewelry designers this love is often with a new material. I recently fell head over heels for some base metal chain with silver, gold or gunmetal finishes. This chain has small leaves attached, so that it looks like a vine. I have made 4 pairs of earrings and will probably make more. This vine/chain is really out of character for me. Although somewhat eclectic, material wise, I still think of myself as a modernist. This chain is definitely not modernist. On further reflection, I can only assume that it fills the void from my current inability to participate in my other ardent pastime of gardening. Since my auto accident in July, gardening has been too difficult to undertake. This must be the void filled by my newest heart throb : chain with leaves.
