Love My Art Jewelry: auction

MaryAnn Carroll

One thing I have learned from my experience with online groups is that similar to "real life" groups, people may come and go. It is the part of life we all have that takes us through different experiences. One thing I have experienced being a part of Love My Art Jewelry is that I continue to become a more inspired, educated and connected person through those in the group and those of you who follow, share comments, guest posts, jewelry creations on SYS and more.

I can't quite remember how this jewelry collaboration came to be because it was quite some time ago. It may have even been close to a year.... not sure.... life goes by so quickly. The time has finally come that our collaboration was published in this very awesome edition of Belle Armoire Jewelry.

This art jewelry set was created by some wonderful artists that include, Mary Jane Dodd, Kelli Pope, Izzy Winterhart, Staci Louise Smith, LeAnn Weih, Patty Lakinsmith, D'Arsie Manzella and me. Our intent was twofold. One was to promote the love of creating handmade with handmade. The other was to recognize and support the organizations that fight to end domestic violence. Many of us have been affected by this whether it is ourselves or someone close to us.Check out the issue for some fab pictures. This issue also includes a bracelet tutorial by our very own Staci Louise Smith.

With that said, stay tuned for more details regarding how you could be the owner of this unique art necklace, art bracelet and earrings to match, while at the same time, helping with an important cause. Once I receive the jewelry back from Belle Armoire Jewelry, we will be auctioning all five pieces together. I was the last one to have these before sending them off to the publisher and I can assure you that when I tried them on, it was AMAZING!!!
