So many fun pieces have taken shape over these past few weeks. It has been such a joy to create work inspired by Colorado's landscapes, native plants, and the places that have become home.

This first collection is geared toward United We Rock Fest, Saturday Aug. 1, celebrating Colorado's 150th anniversary! I wanted these pieces to feel rooted here—some inspired by familiar wildflowers, others by local stone, mountain skies, and quiet moments spent outdoors.

Here's a first look...

n’Capsule Pendants

Hand-painted miniature landscapes set in sterling silver and brass. This collection began with larger paintings of Columbine and Indian Paintbrush before each pendant became its own small window into the whole.

 

Local Stone Dangles

Pikes Peak granite beads, collected and polished locally, spin on these chain-link style sterling silver dangles letting the natural beauty of the stone speak for themselves.

Pressed Series

Tiny Aspen leaves and Columbine flowers pressed directly into silver, preserving little moments from the landscape much like a leaf rubbing preserves a memory.

INTERCHANGE CHARMS

The smallest Aspen leaves from our property with organic edges, and a dark patina leaving the leaves a bright polish.

STUDS + PENDANTS

A small collection of hand-formed Aspen leaf studs and pendants, each one with the subtle differences that come from hand-forming.

Natural Gems

Lapis, Sunstone, Moss Agate, are just a few of the natural gemstones sprinkled through the collection for the way they echo Colorado's colors and landscape—from expansive blue skies to warm sandstone mountains and the interconnectedness of Aspen groves.

INTERCHANGE CHARMS

New gemstone charms designed to mix, match, and start or grow your own Interchange earring collection.

NATURAL GEM STACKER RINGS

A much loved staple - each ring is slightly different in texture and stone, designed to be worn alone or stacked together!

TRAIL-HARDY GEM STUDS

A staple design, textured by passed-down hand tools, each with hand-set stones.

Trail-Hardy Cuffs

A simple cuff that continues to evolve with each one I make—comfortable, quietly textured, gender-neutral, and made for everyday adventures.

Big Sky Star Studs

Inspired by Colorado's remarkable night skies and finished with a bright silver sparkle against a dark patina.

Part II will be shared next week, in anticipation of the Rocky Mountain Music Fest, on Saturday Aug. 8, at Gather Mountain Bloom Farm in Colorado Springs, CO.
