My New Model

I finally have a model for my jewelry!

She definitely has some diva characteristics, and sometimes she just shrugs off the piece I want her to wear...but she does get the job done.

In my relationship/contract with the new face of gEM's, I will continue to make my pieces for YOU...not for her model size. You are the one who wears my designs the best!

But this little diva, Portia, has agreed to live with me, so she gets to try on my jewelry first, and have her photo taken.


Portia, is a hippo.

Please visit my emmsgems shop to see more of Portia, and the full details on the pieces she is wearing here.

The Scribble Group Has a NEW Project!

A new project is currently being listed on The Scribble Group !

The art pieces for sale in the Scribble Group shop have been created by a group of Etsy artists (some pieces are group collaborations, and some are individual), and are sold to the public with proceeds going to a designated charity.

The NEW project is entitled the "Rip Off Project". Participating artists were randomly given the shop of another participating artist, and instructed to "Rip Off" a listing of their choice...using inspiration from the item, colour, title, or description!

Please follow the link above to check out our items - and support our charity!

Green is Hot

The season is changing! The snow is melting!

I was able to get outside today - no jacket required - and get a few gorgeous product shots of some of my new pieces.

Spring is in the air - so why not wear green?

A Couple of Shorts

More Olympic Wear

How can I NOT mention the Olympic Curlers from Norway?

This is a sport dominated by black pants (and sometimes skirts and tights if you are Colleen Jones from Canada). An official Canadian Curling Rule book states that competitors MUST wear the same style of black pant throughout an entire competition.

This fall, that lead a young Manitoban team to wear their "pajama pants" for warm up, and then slip their black pants over top for the games.

A couple of years ago, another Canadian team introduced white belts and "spat" styled foot wear to their game wear...with black pants, of course.

But Norway...you have broke through the rings...with diamonds! Way to go!
