Maitake season is ***finally*** in full swing here in northern IL!

We had a late chanterelle season, and what feels like a late Maitake season but I’m so grateful for the bounty that the oaks provide ✨

Find me making lots of mushroom jerky and soup, oak leaf jewelry and walking pups this week!

Spookin season is here 🎃

I just finished creating these witch broom necklaces! They feature REAL twigs that I foraged, covered in copper and accented with Opal or Turquoise, along with a black kyanite crystal 🧹

I’ve been wanting to make these for a while now, and I’m so glad I finally found the time to do it. These are all available! I have two white Opal, two blue Australian Opal, and one Turquoise broom ✨ let me know which is your favorite!

Ps: I’ll have these with me at this Saturday! I’ll be doing a pop up wire wrapped ring workshop from 10:30-3:30 💕

Here’s the link to purchase!

I wanted to share a pair of custom hoop earrings that I’ve have in the works for my sweet friend Rhen-Elyse Brosseau ✨

They feature real Eucalyptus stems from her plant that she provided me with, and are accented with Moonstones 🍃 putting these together was definitely a challenge, and I felt myself growing as an artist as I problem solved while making them 😅

I did something here that I haven’t done before; creating bezels for the stones out of plant stems. I had this idea, and somehow it came to life in the most magical way.

These will soon be covered in copper and ready to wear! I can’t wait to show you all the final result 🍃✨✨✨

I’ve been taking walks every day in the park and collecting stray cicada wings that I find ✨

I’m so excited to make these into necklaces and earrings! It’s September, and I always feel a bit more inspired during this month. Here’s to some new pieces I have in the works- cicada wings, acorns, tiny oak leaves that I collected on a mountain in AZ. I’m so excited to show you all what I’ll be creating this month 🦋

Cicada season is in full swing! 🌀 I’ve been spending my jewelry-making breaks walking in the park by my apartment and finding dead cicadas, saving them for jewelry. I definitely am the weirdo of the park lol, but it’s quite fun and the end result of the jewelry is sooo worth it

I recently finished this cicada necklace with Labradorite and Lapis Lazili ✨ it features a real cicada (from the 17 year brood!) that I covered in copper through electroforming and lots of patience. This cutie is available! Its not in my shop currently, but send me a message if you want to claim it 🦋

If you’re wondering what I’ve been up to 👀

Lots and lots of projects have been in the works! From creating tons of jewelry for wholesale orders, making custom pieces for customers, and insane botanical fairy jewelry for Pedro Lavin upcoming film ✨

This gal has been BUSY and I’m so proud of myself!
