As part of our Mothers Day Gala, we will have an artist's reception on Sunday, May 3, from 1:00-3:00. Laura, of Laura Neal Designs, will be here to introduce her new mother's and grandmother's angel jewelry. She'll also showcase her stunning array of beaded jewelry and accessories, including elegant Buckeye jewelry, dazzling earrings and necklaces, beaded bookmarks and keychains, and bead-embellished glassware. Stop by and get to know Laura and her beautiful work!

RIGHT UPTOWN AT FIFTEENTH AND ALLEN

A serendipitous stroke of luck brought Anita Stowers into the Market one day. As we visited, she mentioned that she makes jewelry. She brought it in the next day, and WOW!! What jewelry this is. Stunning colors, elegant crystal, sterling silver, and Anita's artistic vision have combined to form sensational bracelets. Using a variety of techniques including bead fringe, Fifteenth and Allen bracelets offer options for any taste or wardrobe. Come in and try them on-- get into that uptown mood for spring!

INTUITIVE JEWELRY DESIGN

Intuitive jewelry designer Jennifer Sieck is passionate about designing wearable art that speaks to the soul, to help the wearer refine their unique definition of beauty. Her bracelets reflect the endless variety of environments, colors, and textures found in nature-- look closely to see the incredible intricacy!

Each piece is totally one of a kind, made with semi-precious stones, found objects, silver, brass, copper and a spectrum of rainbow colored wirework. Often the pieces are inspired by daydreams and night visions.

Jenny says the inspiration for Sacred Bracelets started out in "a dream where I was perusing an artisan's bazaar in India. I saw these eye-catching bracelets and woke up determined to make these visions real. My designs are born from the inspiration of that dream".
