I’m so glad 2020 is over, and while it looks like 2021 isn’t giving us a break anytime soon, I didn’t want to leave last year entirely behind without a few last words.
That tailspin of a year had us all constantly moving in every direction while staying locked in place, and the entire experience crystallized a few important things I’ve learned about life that have helped me over the years.
I hope they can be helpful for you, too!
I hope you had a happy, safe and healthy holiday season!
As we finally close the doors on 2020, it’s time to celebrate those January babies out there!
The birthstone for January is garnet, a gemstone that has enjoyed a rich history in jewelry.
Before we get into the details of this popular gemstone, let’s get to know a little more about our friends born in January.
Can you believe the holidays are upon us?
It’s time to get those last minute gift orders in, and nothing sparkles quite like jewelry – which is why it always makes a thoughtful gift over the holidays.
To make things easy for you, I’ve put together the top six picks from the online shop for this holiday season.
Let’s take a look!
It’s been such a crazy year, can you believe we finally made it to the end?
As the insanity of 2020 comes to a close and various holidays are on the horizon, there’s also quite a few birthdays to celebrate!
I thought I’d take the opportunity to share a little bit about my favorite December birthstones, Lapis Lazuli, Turquoise, and Zircon.
Before diving in, let’s take quick look at the zodiac signs for December, shall we?
You’ve likely heard of fine jewelry before, and I’d be willing to bet that you’ve heard of costume jewelry – but what about demi-fine jewelry?
It’s a term that’s popped up in the last few years and has gained popularity only recently, so now seemed like the perfect time to demystify the subject.
To understand what demi-fine jewelry is, it’s helpful to understand the difference between fine jewelry and costume jewelry. Let’s take a look!
Did you know that I’ve been upcycling since I started my business over fifteen years ago?
Back then, I would have referred to it as customization, or making alterations, but the underlying goal is still the same – reusing old materials and creating something new!
The process has stayed the same over the years, and I’d love to tell you all about a recent project for Annika, a sustainable fashion designer here in Berlin. Let’s take a look!
This was a big year personally – my husband Tom and I are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary!
Such an occasion calls for a celebration – even during a pandemic. While we were a bit weary to get on a plane, we were more than happy to hit the road and head north to Ostsee, otherwise known as the the Baltic Sea.
I’m so happy to finally share some memories with you – take a look!
Summer in Berlin is always the best time of year, and I’ve noticed my personal style choices have evolved from pandemic induced comfy and cozy to wanting to feel a bit more polished. Even if it’s just a trip to the grocery store!
With that in mind, I took a few moments to put this simple summer neutrals look together. Take a look!
Recently, I was approached by a multi-talented make-up artist and painter named Valeria to recreate a similar style from a piece she saw on my Instagram. Take a look at the process!
During the early stages of lock down in March, I moved back to my home studio to help curb the spread of COVID-19.
It was a practical decision, but it worked out so well, I’m moving out of my shop space next Monday.
It was a great experience and I learned a lot about my creative process. It only makes sense to let you enjoy some perks too, right? Starting Wednesday, all of my jewelry at Studio Hertzberg will be 20% off!
