  4. Is this the first piece of jewelry you made at “HOME”?????

    • It’s not. I made this at the strawbale house studio. We’re not moving into the farm/new studio until the fire season ends and we are able to vault the kitchen ceiling in the farm house. 🙂 We might not be in until November.

  5. Blue ribbon tour de force!

  6. Mind blown. I love these crazy awesome pieces of yours!

  7. Getting inspired by your new homestead, I hope? I’m partial to those fronds.

    Your saw work is amazing and inspiring. Any chance you will cast a bunch of the vertebra to sell as beads?

  10. Inspired.

  11. Just amazing…❤️

  12. That chain laden with pearls is the prettiest I’ve ever seen.
    I remember when you came back from one of your jaunts in the wild with a handful of rabbit bones.
    And now, look what you’ve done! What an idea.
    A real blessing.

    • It’s been about 2.5 or 3 years since I’ve made a festooned chain like that. It’s such a labor of love! It’s everywhere now so I don’t use the design element very much any more but those tiny pearls are so divine…I wish I had an unlimited supply of them!

  13. it’s a blessing of nature, something the queen of the hinterlands would wear as she greets the inhabitants of the forest.

  14. Simply exquisite, Jillian! XX
