shops and restaurants in the quaint borough of Hopewell, NJ, is now home to about 70 pieces of my jewelry and such. Ebb, owned by Jody Olcott, is a cozy little shop filled with unique gifts. The store's walls are lined with handmade jewelry, knitted accessories, home furnishings and similar one of a kind items.

100% Up-cycled Christmas Tree

Upcycled, recycled Christmas tree! The trunk is a beer bottle with a few pennies inside for stability, the branches are made from a Pottery Barn Christmas catalogue, a wine cork is wrapped with knotted leather which is the base for the silver metal star cut from a coffee can! I loved making this  environmentally, conservative, adorable little tree!!

Holiday Jewelry Show

The sideways cross necklace.......all sterling silver with a couple of beads dangling from the clasp. This was a hit at the holiday vendor show I participated in yesterday. Sold out and took some orders!
This is very trendy, the celebs have been wearing them, etc. I searched for the meaning of the sideways cross and found this to be the most helpful:



"There are a few beliefs for the meaning of the sideways cross. One meaning is that it represents the earth. It also represents the human race and that the horizontal orientation of the cross means that the humanity is positioned right in the middle of heaven and hell. This makes it a neutral symbol. Because of this meaning, some people say that wearing a sideways cross necklace means that you are aware of your place in this existence; And that you are grounded here on earth. 

There are also people who believe that the sideways orientation of a necklace symbolizes Jesus Christ carrying the cross, this is one of my favorite interpretations. 

It has also been based on the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The horizontal orientation of the necklace connotes that Jesus Christ has actually risen and that the cross has already been laid down to signify that humanity has been saved. Sideway crosses are even engraved in tombstones and graves to symbolize resurrection of the soul during the coming of Judgment Day. At the end of the day, the true meaning of the sideway cross will depend on the person who is wearing it."

It is a very flattering piece of jewelry.
