Indie Fashion Finds: New On Smashing Darling

by trish on January 16, 2012

It’s January. The calendar just flipped to a new year. This always makes me get a little dreamy. I dream about what will be in the months to come. I dream about all the goodness to happen. I dream about where I want to be in my life. I think about the 12 months I have before me to reach my new goals and make things happen. This always seems a good time to me to have fun with my wardrobe too. I like to buy something might not wear to the office … something just for me that reminds me the whole year to keep dreaming.

Heart earrings

Quirky Girl Recycled Tin Can Earrings

All A Quirk of Art jewelry is imagined, created and hand-crafted with quality craftsmanship by me, Beth Taylor, in my Bethlehem, PA studio.

My journey with jewelry began in 2002 as a creative outlet from a very stressful job. Who would have known that one simple weekend workshop would lead me to my life’s passion! But as soon as I picked up a torch and applied fire to metal, I knew I was hooked.

Never very interested in creating traditional jewelry, I explored ways to incorporate non-traditional materials into my work.
