Bran(d) Muffin - Original Sin Jewelry

Howdy Jewelry Fan!! I’ve been contemplating this BIG question: What’s in my Bran(d) Muffin? What IS Original Sin Jewelry all about?? Is this a seven- grain muffin, or a solo ingredient blueberry muffin? What do I stand for? What do we, as a larger community of Humans and Art Jewelry Aficionado’s, believe?? What ingredients have I softened, shredded, mixed, folded and whipped into this deliciously refreshing, positively (sideways) thinking business of mine??

 

(((Gosh—I’d love to know your thoughts on this. You can leave me a message by clicking HERE to tell me what OSJ means to you. Maybe why you keep coming back to the Margaret watering hole to live, laugh, learn and adorn alongside me?)))

 

I’m hoping you’re receiving a big dose of Practical Positivity, after all, you can’t just think it, you’ve got to act on it. Let’s add in a great big cup of Satisfaction, where we are engaging in Conscientious Commerce, with Ethical Sourcing and Environmentally Aware fabrication.  I’m working towards a carbon neutral footprint, adding the incremental costs onto all of my travel and actively searching for a great partner to contribute to where I can take into account all the shipping and buzzing about I do.

And of course, there’s the Jewelry. Right?!? Each piece, hand crafted, charged with high vibe, positive energy and waiting for you online, in my store, or at an Art Festival (hopefully) near you.

Ultimately, in the process of connecting you with meaningful adornment, I’m creating a pathway for you to connect meaningfully with each other. Your love and connection to the people in your life create opportunities for you to share your love and energy with them through gifts and treasures. You celebrate wins and losses, graduations, births, and anniversaries, new jobs, new houses, new loves. You celebrate coming out, retiring, becoming fully who you are and fully loving yourself. My work and I become a part of your story and life when you become a Patron and decide to include me in these celebrations and memorable occasions. It humbles me. It honors me. My energy, my work, to your energy, your work.

What’s the What with Cleaning your OSJ Jewelry
What’s the What with Cleaning your OSJ Jewelry

March 07, 2023

Quick list of things that cause sterling silver to tarnish: oxygen, hydrogen sulfide (small component of our actual air), sulfur (rotten egg smell in Florida water or hot springs all over), acids (some face creams, trace amounts in tissues and paper), acids (also include your personal pH based on the water you drink and the food you eat!), chlorine (pools, shower water, cleaning the toilet) and general moisture (live in the South or East Coast anyone??)

The Thing About Turquoise…
The Thing About Turquoise…

January 26, 2023

The colors and shades and differing colored matrices of turquoise are unique to each region and mine where turquoise is found. Sometimes, like in Bisbee, AZ, finding turquoise is a byproduct of copper mining. Each area reflects the minerals and elements present when the seams of turquoise are formed and the matrix the host rock or sedimentary rock which was not dissolved. Truly, each piece is one of a kind.
