The Zaina Nawar hair tie or bracelet



The Nabeela bracelet

Craft fair Saturday October 22 12-5pm in Brooklyn!

Hey folks.

I hope you like the photos of some of the earrings and necklaces I've posted. If there's anything you like, I can always make it in a different color if you like. Or you can always order the same design. BUT because everything is made by hand, every piece is unique and different.

The craft fair will showcase all kinds of artists. I'll be tabling all day with necklaces, earrings, bracelets, hats, scarves, gloves, and more. It's in the main entrance of the church right on the corner of Montague and Clinton streets.

I hope to see folks there!

Took a little while but here we go!

I want to show you all some of what I've been working on. Here's a little collage that I'm actually putting on a small banner that's going on a table at a Craft show I'm selling at next month. I'm crazy excited. Anyway, here's some of it. There's more to come, asap of course. AND info on the Craft show Oct 22, here in Brooklyn, NY.

Until then, take care and stay brilliant!

Jewelry that makes you go "Oooooh, Ahhhh..."

So in the latest chapter of my journey, I have started to make jewelry. I've been knitting for years. Mostly scarves, hats, bags and the like, but it never occurred to me to make jewelry that way. So I started to crochet and knit earrings, bracelets and necklaces a few months ago with buttons in the mix. Soon I added beads and I got amazing responses from folks. They loved the colors, patterns, buttons and beads.

My bf also suggested that I start making jewelry with really cool old coins. Why not, right? I've seen beautiful necklaces, bracelets, earrings, anklets, etc made with beautiful coins and done right, I'd love to add beads and even yarn to them.

It began to become clearer that maybe I should show the public what I can do on a more organized level and put together a site or something. After looking around and considering time constraints and health concerns, I went with the blog idea especially since I already have 2 other blogs. Third time is going to be my charm for sure!

Soon I'll post photos of items and how you can get your very own Brilliance and Heart jewelry!

Keep posted and stay Brilliant!
