Cool Crystal Rock from New Mexico + Thumb Ring!

11/27/2019

0 Comments

 
laura teague sterling silver thumb ring
I wish the crystals in this rock showed up better in this photo! We stopped several places in New Mexico on our way back from Arizona to do some rockhounding. I am obsessed with the search for cool rocks - especially rocks with a little sparkle in them! 

This one caught my eye because it was just a plan looking rock except for....that AMAZING stipe of sparkle right across the middle of it! I had to take a closer look & bring it home to add to my collection! 

That silver thumb ring is in my online shop now - click HERE if you need one (or more) for yourself or someone else!

Handmade Silver Chain Necklace

laura teague long sterling silver chain necklace
This is one of my favorite sterling silver necklaces; it's fairly thin but extra long, which I love. Long necklaces have been popular for awhile but this is the first time I have made one of my silver chain link necklaces in this longer length. 

The stacking rings you can barely see in this photo (I wear them with my wedding ring but a little pop of mixed metal) are in my online store - click here to get a closer look at those little rings. 

The long silver chain necklace is not on the website just yet but it will be soon - click the button below to join my email list so you will be first to know when it hits the website!

Chunky Flourite Found in New Mexico + Silver Thumb Rings!

sterling silver stacking rings thumb ring
Last week, we were in Arizona for the Fountain Hills Fine Art & Craft Festival and, on our way back home to Louisiana, we decided to take our time and do a little rockhounding on the way. 

I had a book suggesting where to go to (possibly) find flourite in New Mexico so we headed to that site and we found this amazing chuck of flourite! It actually has a little bit of a greenish cast to it which is hard to see in the photo. So much fun!!

Sterling Silver Stacking Ring and California Beaches

10/31/2019

Picture
It's cool and rainy here in south Louisiana after what seemed like an endless summer...and not in a good way. It was too hot for too long. 

Today I am remembering a wonderful trip we took this summer to visit family in southern California. I love southern California...as long as we are at the beach, anyway. What a wonderful place.

Brene Brown's Amazingly Awesome Book on Imperfection + Silver Stacking Rings

10/16/2019

Picture
This book was recommended to me by Megan Auman (www.meganauman.com) and, since I already had Brene Brown's other book (which I can't remember the name of) on my "must read" list, I decided to go ahead & ask Mr. Amazon to send me both of them ASAP. 

I started reading this last night and here's what I can tell you. I am 15 pages in and this book is going to change my life. I am almost in tears as I type that.

She talks about courage (the everyday type, not the "i'm a hero" type), connection and compassion in ways that are real and "actionable", if that makes sense. It's almost reading like a how-to book of how to be a better person. In fact, it IS a how-to book. 

Ok, i'm going to go read now. :)

Colorful Salad Tongs + a Little Silver Thumb Ring!

9/26/2019

sterling silver thumb ring
I just got back from a trip visiting our son in California. Before we left, there was some fairly heavy stress in my life - a very sick relative, a busy time preparing for this trip and several others coming up this fall. Anyway, once we left on our driving trip to California, I decided to spend the trip looking for things that gave me joy. 

This was the first thing I saw on the trip that made me laugh out loud - this crazy fun set of salad serving "forks". So many colors! So much abandon and abundance of colors!! 

I thought, that's what joy is - things that you see or hear that, when you see or hear it, you just spontaneously laugh!

Silver Stacking Rings & Elizabeth Benotti Mug

9/4/2019

Picture
The other day, I was watching a video about something - maybe email marketing or maybe using Pinterest in your business, and the speaker was drinking from an amazingly beautiful black and white coffee mug. I couldn't get that coffee mug out of my head so, when the video ended, I emailed the speaker and told her that I really needed a mug like the one she was using in the video. She told me the artist is Elizabeth Benotti (https://elizabethbenotti.com/) so, now I am the proud owner of one of Elizabeth's mugs! Happy dance!

handmade silver thumb stacking rings
Earlier today I was at a local and delicious coffeeshop (www.Lighthouse.coffeebr.com) and saw this very cute little clutch. It's actually a holder for essential oils but, anyway, what I noticed was that this cute little oil holder exactly matches the colors on my website! I just recently added a little (ok, a lot) of color to my website so now I see these colors everywhere I go. I love them - so bright and cheerful!!

Logically, I know fall is coming but, in the meantime, I'll wear my new gauzy white blouse and enjoy the heat!

Vintage Viewmaster, Sterling Silver Daisy Chain Bracelet & a Sad Story.....

8/22/2019

0 Comments

 
handmade sterling silver charm bracelet daisy chain
Remember these little "Viewmaster" toys? You could put those little circle discs in with the tiny slides & see the small scenes in (sort of) 3-D! I think mine was red & I spent lots of hours with it. A magical world before electronics! 

Well, I saw this one, with lots of "viewing discs" (I'm not sure what they are actually called....) at a garage sale recently for $15.00 and I didn't buy it. What in the world was I thinking??? Talk about something that would have made me happy everytime I looked at it! 

So guess what? Now I am looking on Ebay and I am determined to buy one - a red one if at all possible. I NEED this in my life (again). 

So, into Ebay land I go - wish me luck! 

The clover chain (or daisy chain) silver bracelet was inspired by the clover chains I used to make when I was a child - the clover chains were happening at about the same time as the Viewmaster!

I just got this painting in the mail yesterday from one of my very favorite Louisiana artists, Lauren J.H. Clark of www.etsy.com/shop/LaurenJHClark. I love the colors, I love the size (just 5" x 7") - I love everything about it! I especially love supporting local artists!

Picking Peaches and a Silver Bracelet

Last weekend I was on vacation in Arkansas and one of the most wonderful things we did was find a farm where we could pick our own peaches. We were lucky enough to have a little bit of cooler weather so it was really great and the peaches are so sweet! (We picked 80 pounds of peaches - that's a lot of smoothies and a lot of jam! 

Go here to get a closer look at the silver bracelet - inspired by the childhood game of jacks!

Electric Problem, the Public Library and a Class

7/22/2019

 
Picture
It was a complicated day. I was signed up for an online class that I was really looking forward and then? Our electricity went out.
I got creative - I knew I could access wifi at the public library, which is very near our house, so I headed over there in plenty of time to get settled and watch the class. 
There were a series of setbacks at the library, but I was finally settled in, accessing wifi and ready to go, pink water bottle in hand! 
Our library has this fabulous view, as you can see!

​Although they can sometimes look a little scary, these mugs are made by my friend, Terri Kennedy of Potterri Studio, one of the most fun people on the planet!

Our booth is set up next to hers at Festival International in Lafayette, Louisiana each April and we have such a blast. And those mugs FLY off the shelves of her booth!

Silver Bracelets, Thumb Ring and a Big White Mug

​I have been going through a "white" phase and buying lots of white dishes, some to use for food but mostly just to have around the house to look at.
​I saw this white mug at a store I visited last week - now that will hold a LOT of coffee! Or maybe I will just put it on a shelf and enjoy it. Isn't it just the cutest?

Yard Work and Silver Jewelry

7/11/2019

 
Picture
Here in south Louisiana it's SO hot in the summertime and the plants are growing like crazy. Our yard has so many azalea bushes and they are almost out of control they are so big and are growing so quickly.

So - they have to be trimmed back. Every year. Even if it's hot. Even if I want to do other things (anything).

Yesterday, I was trimming and realized I was wearing my silver bracelet (one of my favs) and thought I should snap a picture.

Is this jewelry sturdy? Yes.

Does it mind a little (ok, a lot) of heat and humidity? Heck, no.

Any the rings? They are always up for anything - 24/7. Click here to shop the rings and here to see the details & shop that sturdy, silver bracelet!

Hot Day, Cold Coffee and Cozy Umbrella

7/10/2019

 
Picture
This is the summer I discovered cold brew coffee. I never liked cold coffee (coffee is supposed to be hot, right?) but then a magical recipe for "cold brew" coffee appeared in my inbox so I decided to give it a try. 

Amazing!! Almost sweet. So satisfying on a hot day! 

This is also the year I discoved how wonderful it feels to sit in the shade of an umbrella on my down back porch. Simple pleasures!

The silver bracelet was just "refreshed" on the website (which, btw, has a whole new look) - go here to see the bracelet!

Speak Like a Human and my Favorite Silver Thumb Ring

7/4/2019

 
Picture
I was at the library the other day, taking notes for a wonderful class I am taking. Suddenly, I looked down at my paper and saw what I had written.

"Speak Like a Human."

Excellent advice from a gifted teacher - she just has a way of saying things so that I get it!

Don't try to be (or sound like) something or somebody you are not.

I guess it's a version of "Just be Yourself", which I never could wrap my brain around when I was younger. (Yeah, I would think, whatever that is.....)

Now, I think I get it, at least a little.

You be you & I'll be me!

Oh, the thumb ring? Sterling silver - if you like it, you can click here to order a couple for yourself!

Four Silver Stacking Rings, a Wedding Ring and a New Laptop

7/3/2019

 
Picture
Today was a day for learning new things and getting up close & personal with our local library.

I had to replace my older laptop for several reasons so this has been a real learning curve for me. My last computer was a Chromebook which was great and, before that, a Macbook. So, it's been awhile since I have worked on a Windows computer. Anyway, learning new things here!

Here are a few of my silver stacking rings, two of which I use on either side of my wedding ring. They blend, right?

Need a Silver Midi Ring Set?

4/11/2018

 
Sterling silver Midi ring set
If so, you have come to the right place! Also called midi rings or knuckle rings, these little rings are a perfectly elegant solution to which rings to wear - you can wear them one at a time, on any of your fingers (or on your thumb). 

They are especially nice as "midi" (or knuckle) or thumb rings because they are thin enough to be completely comfortable wherever you wear them! Speaking of thumb rings, did you know that thumb rings symbolize strength and courage? Traditionally, a thumb ring was worn by archers to protect the thumb during firing. Who knew??

These handmade sterling silver rings are all one of a kind because of how they are made. I may post a video of the process within the next couple of weeks so stay tuned! 

My attention is turning to Thanksgiving - lots of family coming in for the holiday and the house is a wreck, of course......I need to remember to breathe and say "it will all be ok"....because it will!
