A New Etsy Shop!!

I know that it has been quite a while since I last posted but there is a very good reason.

I have been hard at work on a brand new Etsy shop!

I am so happy to announce Golden Apple Jewelry!

It's an ecclectic mix of new and vintage pieces.

I am so excited about it.

Here is a small sampling with lots more to come!

A New Necklace

My latest necklace available here.

More Natural History

A few more little jewels of natural history.

You can find them here.

Jewels Of Natural History

Are you a nature lover? A history lover? Do dusty, cloth-bound tomes and dictionaries call to you? Can you sit in a quiet corner of a museum and lose yourself in the dimly lit dioramas? Then these necklaces are just for you. A page out of natural history to wear close to your heart.
Available right here.

Sail Away

Be the captain of your own ship with this lovely necklace.
A ship in full sail glides across the blue ocean. A delicate anchor is waiting, should you need it.
It's right here in my shop.

A New Necklace

This is, in my mind, the most memorable quote from Bram Stoker's Dracula. "For the dead travel fast." Now you can keep these words close to your heart. It is paired with a small cross to keep your delicate neck safe in the darkest hours of the night.
Available here in my shop.

The Tame Fox

In the classic tale The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery, the fox tells the Little Prince "If you tame me, it will be as if the sun came to shine on my life." Now you can keep these words close to your heart. An enticement, perhaps? Or a promise . . .

Paired with the pendant is a very elegant fox with soulful eyes.

My latest necklace.

Available here.

A Wealth of Words Necklaces!

My lastest necklaces featuring my favorite snippets of poems and stories.

Available in my shop!

Birth Moon Necklace

Did you know that the moon has a nickname for each month of the year? So romantic! Were you born under the thunder moon? The strawberry moon? Maybe the Hunter's moon? Celebrate the month of your birth, or the birth of someone you love, with this silver pendant necklace. It features the full moon in all its glory. Beneath is the name of the moon that corresponds to your month.

January - Wolf Moon
February - Snow Moon
March - Crow Moon
April - Pink Moon
May - Flower Moon
June - Strawberry Moon
July - Thunder Moon
August - Corn Moon
September - Harvest Moon
October - Hunter's Moon

I'm a harvest moon.

Party Dresses

My sainted mother invited my boys to stay with her over New Year's weekend. That meant that my Mr. and I were free to paint the town red. It was the perfect and long-awaited opportunity for me to dress up and I took full advantage of it!

I Love Ohio

I keep Ohio close to my heart, even when I'm hard at work in the kitchen.

Dress Up

Oh, I love these dresses from Modcloth.

Darling Clothes

If I could afford it, I would buy both of these outfits.

They are from the clothing line Dear Creatures which also has a very lovely website.
