Brand New Jewelry From Fab Local Designer Rebecca Zemans!

That's right, fab. As in fabulous. Each piece of jewelry is one of a kind because Rebecca employs an ancient tool called the hammer. With every blow, she forges something special.

Strong and delicate, ancient and modern, her designs are contemporary with a classic look. Conceptually, they derive from Rebecca's fascination with biological cells viewed through a microscope and celestial bodies viewed through a telescope. The organic shapes and geological specimens recall both microscopic organisms and patterns found in space. Movement is also a key component as she strives to create comfortable, everyday jewelry that complements and expresses the exceptional qualities of the individual.

We're Back!

As CBO of embellish, I apologize for not giving you advance notice that the blog would be taking a few weeks off.

I'm sure many of you out there were left with gaping holes in your day. I can only hope that you were able to find another task that was just as productive as the time you spend here.

I assure you, this will never happen again. Ever. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Cheers,

Thank You!

Thank you everyone! I believe a good time was had by all who dropped by on Girls Night Out. The party lasted until 9:30 PM. Fun, yet respectful to Thursday.

Now, what you've all been waiting for... embellish is proud to announce the Girls Night Out $100 raffle winner: Deb Elston!

Deb Elston, come on down!

Latico Leather Bags

It's actually a nice shade of eggshell. Trust me.

Update! Turns out, you shouldn't trust me. Apparently, the color is called eggplant, not eggshell.

In my defense, I quote the great Stephen Colbert: "I don't see color."
