I have the editor of Belle Armoire Jewelry and my husband to thank for the honor this time.
The editor contacted me and asked that I submit some of my jewelry for publication. I didn't feel I had time to figure out what to submit so asked her to tell me which pieces caught her eye. This one was one of them.
Mushroom Jasper, lampwork, yellow turquoise, bone, linen
I'm grateful to my husband, because it was the memory of our first meeting that gave the name to this nature-inspired piece. We met at a Comedy Club! It's still one of our favorite things to do, but it's not that easy finding comedy clubs any more. They were everywhere in the 80's! I think with the tone of the country we should all hope they come back to give some relief.
[Humanity] has unquestionably one really effective weapon - laughter. Power, money, persuasion, supplication, persecution - these can lift at a colossal humbug - push it a little - weaken it a little, century by century, but only laughter can blow it to rags and atoms at a blast. Against the assault of laughter nothing can stand. Mark Twain
