The Nana Necklace

One of my favorite items in my shop is the Nana Necklace.  I made this necklace, along with matching earrings, especially for my grandma, Nana.  She looks so cute wearing it!



Crafts on the Coast

One thing I love as much as making jewelry is nature.  My sister and I recently spent an amazing week camping on the California Coast.  Our days were devoted to crafting in our beautiful surroundings.  My sister made some adorable mosaics and, of course, I worked on jewelry.  By night, we huddled around the campfire, cracking each other up with stories from our childhood.  This was definitely one of my favorite vacations to date.

Cutting out a pendant with my trusty jeweler's saw.

Sanding away the imperfections.

We set up shop on the beach.  Best studio ever!

Inspired by nature.

For the month of February, I'm offering a free pair of "Droplet Earrings" with every order.  These earrings are elegant, sweet, and worth $20.  For full details see www.StudioViolette.com.  Enjoy!

Welcome!

Welcome to Studio Violette's blog!  Studio Violette was founded in July of 2008, as my personal pet project.  I had been making jewelry for nearly ten years and finally decided it was time to share my work with the world.  I love everything about making jewelry; from conceptualizing new designs, to the tedious work of cutting and sanding, to wearing something I've created.  I hope you enjoy my pieces and much I enjoy making them.  To shop, head over to www.StudioViolette.com.
