figured i owed you a shot of the ring all finished. there wasn’t time for a proper photo shoot, but i am lucky to see this hand regularly so that can wait. blessed to have such supportive clients with such excellent taste!!! Poppies and thistle, with diamond studded witch hazel. All recycled 14k gold and using client’s own diamonds. Made with love, as always, with this one pair of hands. 🌙💎🔨🔮🖤 #iowacityjeweler #overthemoonstudio #ethicalfinejewelry #botanicalbride #handengraving #heirloomdiamonds #recycledgold #madeiniowa #byhandwithlove #jewelrywithsoul #handcraftedjewelry #getexactlywhatyouwant #spiritualjewelry #symbolicjewelry
this ring is taking it’s own sweet time, but who am i to force nature and art to manifest? always working, and happy to be busy. happy happy anniversary to these loving and patient clients. ❤️ 🌙💎🔨 #handengraving #botanical #ethicalfinejewelry #madeiniowa #byhandwithlove #iowacityjeweler #wip #poppy #recycledgold #diamondring

good morning from the woods. 🍂🌝🐾 taking some time to recharge in nature and be present with loved ones. i am grateful for this holiday as an excuse to take stock, give thanks, and nurture relationships, but can’t deny the whitewashing of history that thanksgiving represents. i am thankful that my ancestors were able to find refuge on this land, make homes, earn a living, and raise families. we are on stolen land, we are all so lucky to be here, it feels so strange to even need to try to articulate this, but daily i am shocked at the ignorance, hatred, fear, and greed that is called “patriotic” in this country. i don’t celebrate colonialism tomorrow, but rather i attempt to honor the truth and be grateful for a place to rest my head.
