Finally! I've been busy in my studio finishing custom orders and filling retail requests and I've finally had some time to myself to brainstorm some exciting new designs! I've also opened up a fun etsy bead and jewelry store! So you can go there and purchase some limited edition designs and unique fine gemstone beads from my studio overstock. I've been contemplating making the Appus Design domain into a pure gallery and information site and allowing all purchases be made through Etsy. It seems to be the popular and most beneficial trend in the Indie community right now. So it is a definite option. I will let everyone know if and when this transition will happen. For now though The biggest news is my first jewelry piece made with my torch! I have handcrafted Fine Sterling Head pins from the flames and fashioned them into these gorgeous new Watermelon Tourmaline earrings with bright shiny Austrian Crystal flat backs and hammered chain links. I'm so excited to incorporating the torch into my jewelry pieces! This will open a new chapter into my artisan experience.

Limited Edition Designs!
Here is a sample of some of my new designs! I'm thinking of opening an Etsy store sometime in the near future to house these one of a kind gems in addition to the Appus Design website. We'll see how it goes. The other photos are just some of my sample jury slides that I just sent in to be juried for the big Fredrick Christmas festival in November and December. Photographing my jewelry is another thing I love to do. So here they are!

Metalicious!
Delicious new cuffs hot from the studio! These lovely treasures go along with my new Coastal Dune collection which use materials from the seas. Abalone, mother of pearl, corals, and freshwater pearls are fashioned into timeless pieces that can be worn any time of the year yet capture the essence of warm white sands and salty waters.
