Week 8


Hello!


My weeks are getting crazier and crazier! I've been working on some custom orders this week along with school and other activities I continue to add to my schedule! During all the madness I was able to make a few new pieces that are available in my shop. First up was really an experiment for me. I had an idea to make a ring with a little message box charm and voila! Here it is!


It's a functional tiny little message box that you can hide a tiny little treasure in! I think it's so cute! Next, is a necklace I think is so hot for spring and summer! It's a multi-color web jasper necklace with the beads connected by silver eye pins. It's super cute and perfect for the girl who loves color! I think it's especially trendy for this season when bold and bright colors are in!

Last, I made a pretty pink rose necklace. A pink rose cabochon pendant hangs from a small gold round chain with two glass pearls for accent. It will be perfect for the woman that likes very feminine jewelry.



I also wanted to share with you all a bag I purchased a few weeks ago and just received today! It'll give a fellow Etsy seller a little free promotion! I ordered this light gray bow bag and I think it is fabulous! I am so excited about wearing around and think it will be a great spring accessory! It's a great size since I keep a lot of things in my bags and it's sturdy because it's made of upholstery fabric. They also make a mini bag, a diaper bag, and a bag for little girls! There are many different fabrics and I just love this shop! So the shop is called peace.love.n.polkadots. Go check them out!
So cute!
Anyway, I'm about to head out again and meet my friend for a night of wine, cheese, and pottery painting!

Week 7 Challenge

Hello!
It's been another crazy busy week but I managed to get a few things done. I made one suede fringe necklace which I don't have pictures of yet so I'll have those next week. I also got some of my spring post earrings done. I really love these cute little things!





They're all resin or acrylic flower cabochons and they are affixed to gold or silver posts for a nice touch to your spring wardrobe. I made a pair of the beige roses for myself and I love wearing them! More colors will be available soon so be on the lookout!
That's all for this week but check back next week because I'll be working on some new projects this weekend that I'm really excited about!
Thanks for reading!

Have You Met mark. ?

mark.

Many of you probably don't know that I along with making jewelry to sell on Etsy am a mark. Representative as well. mark. which is the daughter company to Avon sells products ranging from beauty to fashion and supports causes like preventing teen dating violence. I joined mark. last year and have loved being a rep. and the opportunities that came along with it. At one point I was the Campus Sales Manager for The University of Memphis (my school) which was really fun. Later in the year last year when things really began taking off with Mozella Designs, mark. took a backseat, but I'm glad to say that I'm back and excited to show things on the blog that you can find on mark. as well. I'm so excited to get back into things that I ordered some new items with more on the way this week to share!







First up, I'm excited to show this super cute (faux) snakeskin clutch by Carlos Falchi, who is a major designer from Brazil. He designed a few items for mark. last summer and they were an absolute hit! When they announced this collaboration they announced that the top selling reps would win a trip to Rio! I didn't win but it was fun trying! Now I'm working on a trip to NYC.




I love this new bag. It is right on trend for the spring season. If you check any of the spring fashion mags out right now (I had a lazy afternoon of browsing them today) you'll see the snakeskin trend. I love this because I'm not sure that I want a full snakeskin blouse or dress but this little clutch is perfect. It's a great size in that you can fit all your essentials plus it has a detachable chain strap so you can wear it. It's called the Wild Things Clutch and this is a little sneak peek because it won't be available for another couple of weeks (Feb. 25).









Next I have the Infinity and Beyond Scarf which is a spring must have! I love infinity scarves because they totally fit my style! This one has gray and white stripes and is lightweight for the spring season. It is available now for $14. This is me modeling it in the picture below. I hate modeling things myself because I always scrutinize the pictures to death! lol. If you want to check out all the cool things mark. has take a look here.







Just wanted to share that with you today. I ordered more mark. things that I should be getting this week. I get so excited about it! I also made some purchases on Etsy last week that I'm going to share when they arrive so be on the lookout for those!

Week 5 and 6

Things got a little crazy last week and I wasn't able to get a post written. So, this week I'm bringing you new creations from last week and this week! We've been getting what I'm hoping is the last of the winter storms here in Memphis so I wanted to create some spring pieces for the upcoming season.
First up are a bright pair of earrings made from the Kazuri beads I got from the bead show I attended. Yellow round beads with white polka dots, yellow flying boat beads, and Swarovski round AB crystals make up this pretty pair.
Next, are another pair of earrings made with Kazuri beads. I've made these earrings before but these have a brighter look as I added small round Swarovski crystals.
The next is another Kazuri piece but I've had this bead for a while so I was glad to be able to use it! It's purple with small stripes of blue that cross the bead diagonally. The ring is made with a thick silver wire and can be made to fit your finger.
Last, I made a long 36 inch multi-color knotted pearl necklace. It's perfect for spring with its light pinks, lavenders, and creams.

So, those are the pieces! Hope you like! Look for them soon in the shop!
