This custom handmade wedding or engagement ring sparkles with your love of music. Any song you choose can be handcarved into a one of a kind sterling silver ring. The notes sparkle as hand set high quality diamonds, and your words of love are hand engraved on the inside.


Ever had a song that meant the world to you? Turn your most precious song into a precious ring. I will hand engrave the REAL notes to your choice of song. Personalized song rings are so unique and one of a kind, they represent your musical taste in one beautifully crafted ring. They are ideal gifts as they take a beloved song you share with someone and turn those experiences into a long lasting keepsake.

One client took the ring to a party and a friend played the song from the ring on the piano! These rings are truly amazing, and since they are handcrafted they become treasured heirlooms.

Mother

This series features hand carved fantastical female characters experiencing emotions of love, worry and fatigue as they transition from growing a life inside their bodies to caring for an infant outside themselves. The arrangement of their limbs create animal like bodies showing a blending of animalistic instincts with human intelligence.
























The combination of differing materials like silver and bronze illustrate how two entities can feel as one, and still be separate beings. As well, red and gold accents show the exchange of fluids between mother and infant; the outside world and the interior of the body. This series also bridges the gap between jewellery and art as the pieces can be worn on the body or stand alone as sculpture.
Please comment and let me know what this work makes you feel, as a woman, a mother, man or father. All thoughts are welcome.

New Pop In Video!

Hi!
I am so excited to share my new Pop In Video!
video

I have been selling these interchageable Pop In Necklaces for YEARS at shows, now you can see how easy they are to use online!

I had so much fun making this video, the music is adorable, and I found it in the Vimeo Music Store, your one-stop-shop for finding, discovering and licensing high quality music for your videos.

This unique changable design also comes in gold, as earrings, a bracelet, and in Delux Gift sets!





Enjoy!
