Handmade Jewelry



I was browsing through some of my favorite blogs and came across a Lisa Leonard design. I was very intrigued and after checking out her website I am hooked on her designs.



They are handmade and very unique. Each piece is hand-cut, hammered, antiqued and polished sterling silver. Plus you can make it custom to you or a loved one! Christmas is coming up and one of Lisa's designs would make a perfect gift.

The Sequined Peacock


Okay, here we go. I am a fan of blogs and am addicted to them. I can get lost in them for hours. Therefore I have decided to attempt to create my own. So, here it goes...

I am a fashion design student and am of course in love with anything that has to do with fashion. I am here to share my addictions with you. Enjoy!

To introduce you to my first addiction that may not have a direct relation to fashion but has to do with the title of this blog. Sequined Peacock. Peacocks are not just glamorous birds that we awe over, they "represent glory, immortality, royalty, and incorruptibility. It is the possessor of some of the most admired human characteristics, and is a symbol of integrity and the beauty that can be achieved when we endeavor to better ourselves and better our lives".
