It’s a GIRL!
May 22nd, 2009

Amelia Pearl Cornwell.  She decided to catch us off guard in several ways.  She came 8 days early, my water broke while my husband was out of town on business in Arizona, and she is a girl! We had really thought that she would be late and that we were definitely having a boy.  That rumor that the second baby comes quick and easily did not apply to me at all. It was a long labor with almost 3 hours of pushing.  But it was all worth it of course!  She is wonderful!  Our son Harrison has been adjusting pretty well. He is very interested and curious and “baby Mia” but has tried hard to make sure he is still getting our full attention. We have some adjusting to do but that is to be expected.  Amelia has been sleeping a lot so I have already snuck a little time in to putting some new earrings together!

“Maternity Leave”
May 12th, 2009

My baby is due May 23rd and time is flying by.  I will be taking a break from Rice’s Market until sometime in August. I may be there a little earlier if I go stir crazy but please check the website/blog for dates. Or feel free to call me  or email me.  Even though I won’t be working a lot I will still be doing custom tag necklace orders and other custom orders so please feel free to contact me.  The only change may be that orders take a little longer than usual. Tag Necklaces should take between 2 to 3 weeks. You may also hear from my sister Hannah instead of me during the next several months. She can always help you with anything you may need.  Please check back, I will post the new baby pics within the next few weeks. Can’t wait to find out if it is a girl or a boy!






Birthstone Circles
May 12th, 2009

This is a new style that I have been playing around with.  A girlfriend of mine had come up with the idea of a necklace for her mother-in-law that would include all of the birthstones of her many grandchildren.  She was worried that a tag necklace with all of the initials of the many grandchildren would be too busy.  The Birthstone Circle is the end result.  This is my 94 year old grandmother wearing the one I made her for mother’s day with all of her grandchildren and great-grand children’s birthstones.   I made it long enough so she could slip it over her head and did not need to struggle with a clasp.  I will get better pictures up soon. Also, I apologize if you need a May birthstone. I have not been able to fine Emerald beads yet.  But I will soon!

This particular Birthstone Circle necklace has 11 birthstones on it and the chain is about 22 inches long.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all. Sarah, 602-363-6144






Shop Current Designs
May 7th, 2009

All of my pieces are custom and one of a kind which is really important to me.  However, this makes it very difficult to be able to buy through the website.  Here are a few designs that I have done recently.  Once they are sold, I can recreate something similiar but not exact.  Please also know that these designs are typically the most expensive designs I have and are not respresentative of all of the collections.  Call with any questions, Sarah at 602-33-6144
