JOY - PEACE

What does joy mean do you? This has been coming up a lot for me lately. For me joy is...

Love

Freedom

Connection

Laughter

Self expression

Creativity

and

Whimsy.

As we enter into this Holiday season, it's more important than ever to find new ways to spread joy in our worlds. 

My jewelry line has always been about this for me. From that spark I felt in my heart when I created my first piece, to the journey that lead me to find what is truly deep down within myself; love and a desire to spread joy.  

Each design has sprung from that place of love, connection, creativity... joy.

For the next few weeks, I'll be exploring a few of my favorite designs, telling their stories, and how they spark joy in me.

Maybe one of your favorites will be featured! Maybe you will be inspired to share some joy of your own.

My mission remains to spread joy in this world. I must keep believing that even a tiny spark can make a difference. 

I'm so excited to do this deep dive to explore what joy means with you. Let's use this Holiday Season to REALLY express ourselves and our love with the people around us near and far. 

Ready for it? Here we goooooooo...!

The first piece I am gong to feature is this sweet little peace sign necklace. 

To me peace represents freedom. Because without freedom, there cannot be peace. As I write this, we are approaching election day. I urge you to take advantage of your freedom to vote and PLEASE do so. Vote for peace and vote for freedom, whatever that looks like to you. If you are undecided, try this exercise: Take a deep breath, close your eyes, put your hand on your heart and with your next inhale, take in the air slowly and say to yourself softly in your head, "peace". Say it again softly as you slowly exhale. Feel your body relax. Feel yourself embody peace, and vote from that place. 

I love you. I wish you peace and joy.
