Do You Know What It Means To Miss New Orleans?

My new line is a tribute to my birth place of New Orleans. It is an eclectic mix representing the old and the new--memories of the past and relics found today. The influence come from New Orleans' rich history and the colors of the Mardi Gras.

The traditional colors of Mardi Gras are purple (Justice), green (Faith), and gold (Power).

I began this line with a couple of sweet light pieces using these colors.

Tri-color Necklace

Lavender with green & purple pearls on gold filled chain

Dainty Tri-color Necklace

Lavender and green gems on gold filled chain

Sweet Crystal earrings

Lavender colored crystals, green borealis crystals & gold filled chain

Tri-color Long Dangle earrings

amethyst, citrine, peridot gems & gold filled chain


Elegant & Luscious earrings

golden hoops, chain & smokey topaz

Belle of the Ball

Champagne crystal pendant with champagne & amethyst crystals


Crystal & Gold earrings

champagne & amethyst crystal gold filled earrings

These two are my transition pieces from gold to silver . It represents the an old saying from girl scout days... Silver and Gold, silver and gold...make new friends but keep the old. Very meaningful to native New Orleanians post Hurricane Katrina.

Angel Wings earrings

Silver beads, gold filled chain & mother of pearl angel wing beads
