Custom Initial Necklaces


I just finished a custom initial necklace for a nice man who had it made for his wife for their anniversary. It seems that these classic, elegant pieces are my bestsellers. People have them made with their initials, their children's initials, a special date, or a word that is important to them. I can make them in a number of styles and designs. These are truly one-of-a-kind custom designed jewelry pieces just for you. I can make them in sterling silver or 18k gold. Email me at kmk222@hotmail.com or visit my shop to design your own.

Snow Day


I was at work yesterday taking breaks every once in awhile to go watch the snow fall out the window. It was beautiful, Christmas morning snow - big, soft flakes. I just wanted to go for a walk out in the snow because it is so quiet and peaceful. As I was surfing the internet I stumbled upon this photo that I thought was perfect for this snowy day. I am sorry I don't know who to give credit to for this photo, but whoever you are, I think it's gorgeous!

Art Show


I got two of my pieces from my thesis show accepted in the 18th Annual Minnetrista Juried Art Show and Sale. The exhibit runs from now until the end of March at the Minnetrista Cultural Center in Muncie, IN.

Bird Houses


One of my favorite things about the spring and summer is having a bird house and watching all the birds that come to feed and live outside my front door. I just open the door and watch them for hours. I especially love when I am lucky enough to have a cardinal visit - they are so beautiful. I was looking around sprout home and saw these sweet ceramic bird houses for $27.50. I will definitely have to get one of these!

New York, New York


So I was getting myself all prepared to move to Indianapolis in May and then Travis gets a call from the big company he really wants to work for. He had a telephone interview today and it went really well. But, the job is in New York City! That is a LOT different from Indianapolis or St. Louis, where I am from. New York would be so exciting but, also, a little scary. There would be a lot of design opportunities for me there, though, which would be nice. I guess I will just have to see how he does with the rest of his interviews.
