I recently visited New Orleans last month, and I was so inspired by the "Crescent City".
For me New Orleans is a melting pot of many things: people, food, and architecture. I was able to find inspiration in all these areas. The "City" is much like the Gumbo for which it is known. I think of my jewelry designs as gumbo sometimes. I try to design using a multiple techniques, colors, and bead sizes in one piece in an effort to create unique details. The piece below was designed while I was visiting New Orleans. I used my latest obsession: Picasso beads - love them!
