Blushing and Gushing
I am rather belatedly posting these links to wonderful words that made me blush. Fabulous author and dear, dear friend Katrina Stonoff gushed about her Sweet Tarragon purchase a few days ago…with pictures! (Twice!) Do poke around her blog for a bit – her posts are always a great read, and she also runs a book giveaway every Monday, so be sure to get in on the action.
Thank you Trina! Much cross-country love to you. 
Custom Melange
Our loyal customer Kate picked up our Melange necklace at a show over the holidays. A hefty, striking necklace in deep amethyst and earthy moukaite, she loved it so much that she asked for its cousin in shades of blue and grey. I used the corrugated same spacer beads as the original to give the same overall effect and combined them with cool grey marble and tons and tons of sodalite to create Melange’s cousin, The Blue Spice. The orignal and custom pieces are below. (Click to embiggen)
Just like the custom ocean jasper set I did a few months ago for Sally, this was a ton of fun to work on. If you’re looking for your own custom piece — for a special event, gift, wedding, or just because — we’d love to create something for you. Contact us today to get started.
And don’t forget to stop by Simply SOTA in New Hope tomorrow to support your local artisans!
Grand Opening of Simply SOTA
The Grand Opening for Simply SOTA, a new indie shop in New Hope, is this Saturday. What’s so special about SOTA? Well, in addition to having a lot of cool stuff (art, clothing, bags, decor, etc.) that’s all made by local artisans, they’re carrying Sweet Tarragon ornaments and jewelry! I’m excited to report that they’re carrying several pieces that are new and not available on our site, so get on down to New Hope if you’d like to take a peek. One featured artist will be on hand demoing her wares at 1:00, and Mer and I will be bouncing in and out for a chunk of the afternoon. Tell everyone you know (Facebook is handy for that sort of thing – feel free to add friends to the existing event or create your own) and come on down this Saturday for some local artisan goodness.
SOTA is located at 26 N. Main Street in New Hope; click here for directions. Hope to see you Saturday!
