I'm reminded today of how much I love Etsy. Not just because it's a great place to buy and sell handmade or vintage treasures, and not just because it's a way for the middle class to take back the economy and show some love for the planet. I love Etsy because of the unique people I meet there.
Jeannie is one half of the dynamic duo that is JeannieRichard, a husband and wife team that designs and creates hot, stylish jewelry. You can get to know them on their
blog ,
or stop by their
"about" page. I love this explanation of how they make things work out: "
She loves tea, he loves coffee. She loves sea, he loves mountains. She keeps curtains open, he keeps them closed. She loves him, and he loves her. Together they combine." You immediately get a glimpse of their fashion sense and enthusiasm, but what you don't see is how awesome Jeannie really is.
I met Jeannie on Etsy. And she's so cool! Kind, compassionate, strong, and truly able to keep a positive attitude no matter how tough the day is. We live on opposite sides of the planet, but I feel like she's the neighbor next door that I have my coffee with. No matter that when I'm getting up in the morning, she's getting ready for bed. She picks me up when I'm down.
I'm loving the new infinity bracelets in the shop. Aren't these cool?

Color Block Earrings
Jeannie and Richard make the kind of jewelry I wouldn't dream of attempting. It takes so much skill and patience. Just look at the beadwork on this bracelet and earrings. |
Here's another new one, the colors are so delicious and vibrant.
Imagine the skill needed to create this piece of gorgeousness? Be still my heart!
