Design Sponge -check out this site

I'm excited to post an already favorite new find that I just discovered: Design Sponge. Fabulous for the crafty types, interior decorators, trend watchers and DIY'ers. All kinds of inspiration and projects to keep you busy for years to come. But since I LOVE to travel (who doesn't), I started drooling when I found their city guides, including our own Seattle - going into details on neighborhoods, places to eat and have fun! Just seeing the photos alone almost take me there for a split second. Check it out. http://www.designspongeonline.com/category/guides

PHOTO PENDANTS for special occasions

Hello mini-picture fans - just wanted to tell you about a very special order that I completed recently.

A client's mother had passed away and for the memorial service she wanted a necklace for the ladies in the family to wear to the service and have as a treasured keepsake afterwards. She requested her Mother's face taken from a vintage photo put in the front and her favorite saying that she always said to her children typed on the back. It was a black and white photo and so we added clear crystals and freshwater pearl in the cluster on the top and a clear crystal on the bottom, just as the Valentine's piece below shows. It turned out beautifully and made their day more memorable. Some were on the 18" stainless steel ball chain and some were on the 16-19" oxidized sterling silver chain.

Send me any photos you would like made into pendants for any occasion - baby pics, anniversary celebrations, engagements, weddings or birthdays - just about anything. Being reversible, I can put another pattern or color on one side, so you can wear at other times as well. Makes a great gift for grandparents of their grandchildren or vice versa.

Love Season











Love is in the air - it's Valentine's Season -time to think romantic thoughts if you aren't already. I have new designs posted to the site that I'm really excited about. I have also added a cart to many pieces which makes things easier for you to order. I will continue to add the cart to more pieces as I find time to do so.


Reversible MINI picture pendants sport all kinds of Valentine art so that you have a fun piece to pull out every year. Perfect for tees and jeans or a cute dress for that dinner out with your sweetheart. You can put together any combination of the pictures you see and wear it both ways. 2 chains: $25 for 16-19" oxidized sterling or $15 for stainless steel ball chain, which is a great option for young girls. Check out all the pretties in red at www.sarahjaned.com.

Til later...be kind to others and take care of yourself too. Enjoy the season!
