Peaceimages jewels found a new online home :) I can't wait to share with you..

Details coming next week.

C.


and now, onto some new "peaces.."
a solid brass vintage cuff w/ vintage Trifari jewels and an ankh dangling from it.

I wear mine on my forearm, as opposed to on my wrist.
It allows the jewels to drape dramatically down my arm.



from my "exposed brick" series...a gorgeous royal blue leather is laid across hammered brass drops. 3.5" and the posts are solid brass.

Muse.

SXSW....uhm YAY!

after being left in the dust for last year's festivities, I'm finally indulging for 2010!

i am so excited and a bit nervous. i heard they are long, grueling days.

i'll have to master the balance between cute and comfy!

i snagged some hi-top chuck taylor's, flat gladiator sandals and a flat pair of blue boots! (pics to follow)

i've got some skirts, flowy dress and some denim. i think my shoe spread will vibe nicely with my outfits, and give me some versatility! my shirts range between beaters, tees, and camis w/nice material that feel good against my skin. an important part of feeling beautiful involves wearing the right material.

this is just an fyi that i will not be shipping out any orders during 3.17-3.21

any orders placed during my vacay will go out 3.22 and after, priority mail.

i'll still be available via email, so if you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me :)
photosbypeace@gmail.com

the boutique will remain open, despite me not shipping anything out. when you set up the vacation feature on etsy, they make it so no one can see the items in your shop.

that's wack..

i'll have tons of pics to post when I return, I'm sure... and a lot of new jewelry coming next week.

ah hell.... let's post it now ;)

all will be available in the boutique tomorrow.




huge purple agate sterling plated cuff.



a closer view of the variations in the agate. stunning... i get lost in them.



ocean blue agate (1.75") on reptile, adjustable brass band.



feathers on brass hooks, w/ solid brass vine, purple lucite bead



feathers w/ amber, tangerine lucite, mud bead on sterling hooks.

new new...

i have so many huge announcements coming up.

new retailers, new magazine spreads...new opportunities.

i am in love with life.. the trials, the good times..everything in between.




a stunning 3" inlaid brass ankh on goldplated choker.
1 of a kind, sadly.



a close up of the ankh statement necklace which is now available in my boutique.

1 of a kind, so don't wait. it won't last, I promise.

i placed the ankh on this type of necklace to give it a classic, dressy feel.

i love the result.



back chains are meant to drape down the back and add life to your outfit from ALL angles.

these can be rotated, however, and worn in front.

they look amazing with pencil skirts and tucked in tanks.



a close up view of the aquamarine and tourmaline.
a great mix of color.



a full view of the back chains, available now.

800.

Today I hit my 800th sale on etsy.

A great day, indeed :)

I'll celebrate by adding a new "peace" to the lineup
...as a sort of reminder that milestones don't mean my intensity should wane.

This 18" agate necklace w/ 3" vibrant purple pendant is so dope :)

I'll be adding different colors to the lineup next week.

Have a blessed day.






seasons change...

it's really interesting the way people leave your life
just as quickly as they came into it...

What a Day, What a Day...

I posted SO much new and vintage jewelry yesterday; some of which already sold.

Add that to all of the orders I had to ship, and I think that adds up to me needing an intern.


...but it would take hours of the day I already don't have, to train someone to free up more of my day.

Go figure.

Let's go!
