Looking Back

I find it so interesting to look back at old work.

For me, usually, once I make something it is gone...removed from me.

Kind of like birth.

So it is fun to look back once in a while and see what I have done.

These necklaces represent where I was when I added my jewelry collection to my business years ago.

There is a definite style and feel to them. I see limitations when I look at them. It was new to me then...materials were new, techniques were new, packaging, display, finishes were new.

I was a different person then and it shows in my designs.

I like keeping pictures of previous work because it's very easy for me to forget where I was and how far I have come.
