And I want it SO BAD!!!
This is a gorgeous piece of jewelry, and although I can't remember -where- I first ran across it, I know that the moment I saw it, I fell in love.
Like all things that I have to force myself to resist the temptation to buy, that means it ends up here. Because if I can't have it and love it and cherish it... then someone should!
This sterling silver wire wrapped bracelet is called "Water Colors" and was made by wrapping 20 gauge wire around a 14 gauge core with an absolutely gorgeous and vibrant lampwork bead as the focal for the piece. I'm in love with it. Not like. L O V E... Love.
Kittyd on Etsy has a number of this style of bracelet actually. This one, in particular, caught my attention due to it's beautiful colors, but it's by no means the only beautiful piece she has in her shop. Far from it, actually.
Handcrafted Jewelry and Supplies by KittyD is filled with beautiful pieces and she has some of the most original and beautiful wire-wrapped pieces I've ever seen.

Today's feature is a wonderful jewelry artist who is just starting out on Etsy.
Designs by Tahra is a fresh, new shop that opened up just this last December in 2009 and is filled with a small but absolutely gorgeous collection of pieces that are both unique and stylish.
Tahra West, the shop's owner, contacted me in e-mail recently asking for some advice and when I followed the link to check out her shop I was both pleasantly surprised as well as.... well, tempted. She has some wonderful pieces in there with a very unique inner vibrancy to them.
As a mother who home schools her children and loves to cook, I can't even imagine how she finds the time to make such beautiful pieces but I predict future success for this creative woman's future and I bet when you take a peek, you'll agree!
So head over to Designs by Tahra today, take a browse around and give her some hearts or leave a comment here to help encourage an up and coming jewelry designer that's sure to make others take notice.
