Necklaces Featured In The Showcase 500 Art Necklaces Book by Lark!

Two Little Book Pendant Necklaces Published!

I guess I will say that today was one of those ~ pinch me days ~ definitely.

After spending two days away, I came home to find a package on the front porch from Sterling Publishers.  Inside was the Lark Book I had been waiting for....The Showcase 500 Art Necklaces one.  Yep.  That was the one! It had ARRIVED!

Several months ago I took a chance and submitted a favorite piece, just finished in the workshop.  I also thought a lot about a necklace that 

Jean Van Brederode and I had worked on together.  So......with much encouragement from dear friends and family, I thought, "Why not?"  And I submitted them both!

I have my own special copy and they are for sale on Amazon.com  It is quite an honor and I will just smile for awhile.  I am grateful for the hard decisions made by Juror Chunghi Choo and the team at Lark for putting together such an awesome book.  The necklaces inside are stunning and I am humbled.

Here are the pictures.  I urge all my friends to submit their work.  Other friends have done so and were published before me.  Isolina Perez, my friend, artist and instructor at The Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC, did just that.  I also thank Isolina for all her support and encouragement.
