Beader Becomes High-Fashion Designer
According to the article I mentioned yesterday published by The Houston Chronicle, jewelry designer Kim Rouse has roots similar to my own when asked about her beginnings:


"I was doing what everyone was doing: stringing beads. Then I started casting metal and stones from my designs. I wanted to create designs that fit me, my life."


This statement prompted me to take a look at her web site to see how far she's come from a bead stringer. I liked what I saw!

From her Vineyard Collection:

From her Peridido Collection:

Her latest collection is called Labyrinth, and along with some of the following jewelry items, she also has a cool t-shirt for sale with the saying "Life is a labyrinth, Follow your heart." Other than the fact that the t-shirt has a commalinks splice on it, I love it! This is such an apropos mantra for us all. Don't you think?

    I work with for Cartier [...] I am familiar with your jewelry blog and I thought you would be interested to know (if you don't already) that Cartier is re-launching their iconic LOVE collection.

    Very interesting!
