Fortuitous Fine Jewelry

It was only supposed to be temporary.

We agreed that we weren't going to adopt another dog after we lost Pepe last year. He was almost 20 and had been dealing with chronic kidney disease and cognitive decline for years. It was a lot. We were down to *just* 2 dogs and a cat so it seemed like the perfect time to get back into fostering.

When we picked "Ghirardelli" up for I should have known that it would end up being forever. My husband was already begging to keep him on our way home. I fought it. This dog was a hot mess - a broken foot on one front leg, a janky elbow on the other, and a back knee that bends the wrong way. Then there was the coughing...pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, pulmonary edema, and tracheal collapse. I could already tell he was going to be a money pit. Based on his lack of socialization and deformed feet and legs we think he may have spent most of his life in a cage with a backyard breeder before ending up as a stray. He didn't know how to be affectionate but as he got more comfortable, his goofy love bug personality started to blossom. He charmed his way into my heart and I gave in. We're so thankful that Long Way Home Adoptables allowed us to adopt him.

We love you, Walter!

THEY'RE HERE. 🐾

After months of sketching, testing, redesigning, and convincing my dogs to model for treats, the Pet Tag Collection is officially live.

This collection started because I couldn't find tags that felt right for our chihuahuas.
Everything I found seemed too big, too generic, or just not very cute on tiny dogs.

So I made my own.

The collection includes:
🐾 Tiny and Classic sizes
🐾 Brass and Sterlium Plus sterling silver
🐾 Personalized engraving
🐾 Designs inspired by the dogs who completely run our lives

Whether they're your Soul Dog, Ride or Die, Favorite Child, Foster Fail, or BFF, these tags were created to celebrate the once-in-a-lifetime bonds that make our lives better.

Shop the collection now through the link in bio.
And tell me...which design does your dog want?

When your dog weighs 4 pounds, even "small" pet tags aren't always small.
Most tags I found looked oversized on our senior chis, so I decided to make my own.

The Pet Tag Collection is available in two sizes:
Tiny - designed specifically for toy breeds and purse pals.
Classic - for dogs who need a little more room to show off.

Because tiny dogs deserve tags that fit their personalities, not just their collars.

There’s nothing more fortuitous than finding each other.

Some rescue dogs show up out of nowhere and somehow become part of who you are. The scared foster that never leaves. The scruffy stray that turns into your shadow. The soul dog you weren’t expecting but suddenly can’t imagine life without.

In honor of National Rescue Dog Day, I’ve been working on something special for the dogs who changed us forever.

Tiny keepsakes for loyal companions. Thoughtfully designed pet tags made in-house and personalized just for them. Honestly, don’t they deserve better than a boring aluminum tag from the machine at the big box store?

Launching soon. VIP subscribers will get first access before the public release. 💖🐾

Some moms raise babies.
Some moms raise rescue gremlins who p*e on their rugs. 🐾
This Mother’s Day, we’re celebrating the dog moms, cat moms, and every woman whose camera roll is 87% pet photos.
Because love is love, even when it sheds on your black clothes.
These little necklaces are made for the moms whose “kids” who will do anything for shredded chicken bites.

Not every piece starts from scratch… sometimes it starts in the back of a jewelry box.
This client had:
• a loose aquamarine
• two diamond rings she never wore
Beautiful stones… just not her anymore.
So we started over ✨
We kept what mattered, reimagined the rest, and created a ring that actually fits her life and style now. Something she can reach for without thinking. Something that feels like hers.
Because jewelry shouldn’t feel like an obligation.
It should feel like a favorite.
If you have pieces sitting around waiting for their second chance… I’d love to help you turn them into something you’ll actually wear 💛
DM me when you’re ready.

Sterling silver dust everywhere, tiny silver balls that tried to roll away, and approximately 47 moments where I wasn't sure if it was going to look like it did in my brain. Handmade jewelry is funny like that. One minute it looks like scraps on the bench, the next minute it’s something really special and unique. Creating this custom order was really a lot of fun.
