Good morning, sugar beets!

I’m so excited! I’m living on the very edge of my seat today

preparing to launch this series, photographing on black and white backgrounds, editing snapshots, stopping for snacks, gazing out the huge window I’m sitting beside and looking at the fresh blanket of white that fell silently in the night. It’s a very good day. I’m spunky and spry. There’s a feeling that has come to me out of this series, a feeling that I really do like exactly who I am as an individual and as an independent artist! I love the work of my hands and the outpouring of my heart and soul.

There’s certainly a fierce sense of accomplishment for me, wound up tight and small, with the completion of this sea series. It may not be your “thing” and the designs may not speak to you and that’s perfectly fine — not everything is for everyone! Each of these necklaces are designs that I dreamed up out of experiences and imagination. I’ve sweat over them, I’ve even cried a little over them — what would be they without quick baptism in salt water??? To see them lined up beside me, seven in a row on my desk top as I type this, is a small miracle that I’m truly proud of.

The group of seven,

I’m somewhat nervous to see where they fly off to.

They’re unlike anything I’ve created in the past.

Each design is complete unto itself but when partnered with the greater

whole, they seem to thrum with the concept behind the series.

Know that when you own one, when you wear one, it is unique unto you and individual in it’s character but it comes from a bold and magical family with six other members

that will be cast out into different corners of the world.

If you decide to make one yours,

you’ll be part of a small group

of seven individuals who share in the ownership of this dream of mine.

If that’s not magic, I don’t know what is!

I’ll be listing all seven in my Etsy shop this evening.

I’ll be prompt and the update will occur at 7PM MST.

Thank you for your interest in and your consideration

of the Rumors of the Sea Series!

I’m delighted to share them with you!

Warmly,

The Noisy Plume
