Frida Kahlo Necklaces

I made these earlier in the summer while thinking of Day of the Dead and Frida.  They're exactly the kind of necklaces I love- something that goes with a tank top and jeans and makes all the statement you need.

There's a connection between expression and your joy in life.  To be free to dress in whatever manner truly reflects how you're feeling and love that look.  I think Frida is someone who stepped out and wore a true expression of her artistic passion.


Inspired by Frida Kahlo, these necklaces are bold and made with the vision of traditional Mexican folk art.  The vibrant array of color provided by turquoise, gemstones, porcelain, and wooden beads is a celebration of life and and an expression of inner joy.  Each bead is wire wrapped to the next for sturdy construction.




I've got three potential shows coming up and so far I've been very productive and actually sticking to a schedule.  Regular trips to the post office, time set aside every day to make things, and yoga is finally starting to stick.  Hooray!
