Featured in Vermont Vows/ WellWed Magazine!

Vermont Vows/WellWed magazine has been one of my favorite bridal publications since I first discovered it after moving to Vermont several years ago. Not only do their four magazines (for Vermont, the Hamptons, the Cape, and New York State ) showcase some of the finest bridal vendors and real weddings in New England, they are beautifully designed and gorgeously curated (even the advertisers are hand-picked.) So I was extremely excited when I received a note from the editor last fall requesting some of my designs for a photo shoot!

The Spring/Summer 2012 issue, on newsstands now, has nearly 30 pages of swoon-worthy bridal fashion inspired by the sea, and I was lucky enough to have several of my jewelry designs included in the spread, which is found in all four of their publications.

Here's a peek at a few of my favorite images (click to enlarge):

The model is wearing my Athenais earrings with a gorgeous Claire Pettibone dress...

And these two photos show the model wearing my Aiglentine Bracelet and Lys Earrings paired with a sparkly Lo Boheme hair ornament...

Scenes from the Studio...

As I mentioned last week, I recently have been working on a small group of jewelry designs that will be on display at the  Frog Hollow Gallery.  The designs are on display for the month of May. Here is a selection of a few of the pieces that are available...

{Framboise Earrings | Raspberry and Lavender Silk Earrings with Pink Quartz} 

The Framboise Earrings are a continuation of my new line of jewelry featuring handmade textile beads of silk and real metal threads.

The Fleur de Citronnier set was inspired by lemon blossoms...

{Fleur de Citronnier Earrings | Lemon Quartz, Prehnite and Peridot Earrings }

{Fleur de Citronnier Necklace | Opera-length Necklace with Lace Pendant, Lemon Quartz, Peridot }

The necklace features a gold and silver lace pendant with a base created using the punto in aria or "stitch in air" technique, a needle lace method dating back to the Renaissance.

An Edera Jewelry Bride...

It's always such a wonderful surprise to receive photos from brides that I've worked with in the past...

 A big thank you to Crystal for sending in this lovely photo from her wedding day. She is wearing a pair of my Thalie style earrings. 

Congratulations to the new couple!
