...to get your holiday shopping done! I'm already freaking out a bit about what to get everyone on my list!
Speaking of, I finally decided to create a fun Eilisain Jewelry gift guide, some ideas and suggestions to help you get super cool and awesome jewelry for everyone on your list!
As you know all of Eilisain Jewelry is unisex, I don't like to pigeonhole types of jewelry for a certain gender, but this guide is one to help you discern what you could get for each person in your life.
I hope it helps and thank you for reading1

Welcome to my blog, where I document my process in making jewelry, muse on the influence of art and the joy of making beautiful objects.

Looking back and going forward
It's August and for anyone in the jewelry business that means the holidays are near and it's time to prepare for shows, lookbooks, new collections and plans.
I've been working hard lately on making lists, finishing my bookkeeping and planning for the next year and five years to come. This isn't something I come by easy, I've found that I work better when I make lists. I keep a sticky note on my datebook with all of my 'To Do's for the day. Sometimes I'll even write things I already did so that I feel accomplished, how silly is that?!
So what does this have to do with the Aurelian Nights behind the scenes images below? Well I thought, it's was a year ago that I worked with Paula Chrismon, of The Closet Consignment Boutique, on our first and I'm sure not last, collaboration. And the project was not without it's hiccups but overall it was a big project and I'm proud of the work I did with Paula, the models, photographers, artists, local business' and friends.
I'm reflecting on that project and knowing that it happened because of the planning I put into it with Paula and the determination. If I could work on such a big project and make it successful then I'm confident in the future. I'm scared but excited and that's what I love SO much about being a business owner and an independent designer.
As usual, thank you for reading!

The Holidays are just around the corner...
A little preview of my letterpress card. It looks decent now but...I've had the most frustrating time in that class. So many factors are at play when trying to get a plate just right or the ink and the paper...I could go on an on.
However I do have some more happier news, I'm gearing up for the holiday madness that will come in December. My senior show is scheduled for Saturday, December 1 (so mark your calendars!), and I'm also doing a trunk show the following weekend in Washington, D.C. at Redeem. And during that same week there will be two holiday sales in the Greenville area sponsored by the ECU metals guild. Whew...it'll be a bit cray-cray but I'm really very excited about it.
I went to my printer yesterday to get specs on postcards. I can't wait until they are done and I can show them in addition I will be making limited edition letterpress cards for my senior show. The wheels are turning and there's no turning back now!
