I would like to share with you one of my absolute favorite blogs; “The Noisy Plume“. It is a blog about jewellery… and much more. I enjoy reading her thoughts about different aspects of life, watching her beautiful poetic photos and seeing how she transforms it all into pieces of jewellery where nature, animals and fairytales plays a major role.
Make sure to visit her blog or Etsy shop. I have added the blog to my blogroll as well.

Laura just wrote me and told me that she has made some new pieces of work. And take a look… I really like the fragility – if there were incets in space I am sure they would look like this – beautiful!

She writes about the work “Part of an ongoing series of jewelry that memorialize fleeting feelings and (in)significant events in my life.”
