The Walton Collection

December 15, 2016 by turningmoss Leave a Comment

The Walton Collection is focused on an elegantly curved bar of beads, while some styles in this collection are draped with chain, some styles are kept simple allowing the beads to shine on their own. This minimalist style necklace is comfortable and effortless to wear. The 18” length works well with a variety of necklines making it the perfect fit for most.

As fall set in my focus of sharing my plant based adventures has temporarily slowed down and attention has turned towards my Jewelry Collection. Although I have not been posting much as of late, there has been a lot going on behind the scenes. I’ve been working on adding new pieces to my jewelry line, upgrading my images, and reconfiguring this website to include all the projects I am working on. I’ve got a lot of work ahead, but inspiration is high and I’m looking forward to sharing the steps as I go throughout 2017. Here is a peek at some new necklaces for now… [Read more…] about Turning Moss Jewelry

Fall Maple Komorebi

Chicago Botanic Gardens - Maple Tree - Komorebi - Fall ColorsOne of the best things about fall is witnessing the Maple leaves transform into their many autumn colors. I’ve been watching and admiring Maple tress all my life, every year I look forward to seeing their brilliant colorful display. Fall was starting to feel like it was slipping away and I was concerned that I’d miss the changing leaves, so we headed to a green oasis to soak in some of that magnificent golden sun and take in the beauty of the season. I wanted to share my fall komorebi sightings at the Chicago Botanic Gardens with you. [Read more…] about Fall Maple Komorebi

The Gift of Plants

Pilea peperomioides - Chinese Money Plant sproutFor a person who loves growing plants, the gift of a new sprout is always such a lovely surprise.

It’s got to be one of the cutest baby plants in town. [Read more…] about The Gift of Plants
