What do I do when I'm not making jewelry?
I make other jewelry.
But when I really feel the need to take a break, I sometimes head on over
to Polyvore.com, where you can design and put together clothing and
accessories to create outfits. ...I know, I'm like a ten year old. :)

Polyvore is a great way to practice using color, texture, pattern, coordinating -
all the things that I do when I am designing a piece of jewelry, or what you're
doing when your making any kind or art or doing any kind of craft. Sometimes
when I'm playing around on Polyvore I get inspired to create a new jewelry
design. Sometimes a certain color will catch my eye and put me in the mood
to work with that same color gemstone or bead. Not only is Polyvore
relaxing, but it also can be a great source of creative inspiration!
Below are a few outfits that I put together in my own style. If you haven't
checked out Polyvore yet, you should give it a try, it's fun!
