Is it hard to express your concern for a friend?  When she's hurting, would you like to just let her know you care and you understand?

Life's Little Merit Badges® are designed to do just that.  Over 24 designs capture stages of life common to many women (and sometimes men). Each piece of jewelry comes gift boxed, with a little leaflet written about the issue addressed -- like "Wake Me . . . When It's Over", shown above left, handy when life is overwhelming!

Most are created using polymer clay, although new materials are creeping into my work.  For example, "Empty Nest" is a 1-1/2" natural products bird nest, bound with raffia, with wooden beads and feathers for accents.  Just in time for graduation, it gives a little pep talk to empty nesters..


A friend described Life's Little Merit Badges® as "thinking women's jewelry," but they're a lot of fun, too!  Come see them!
