I started selling jewelry at the Market in 1998. Wow, that was a long time ago! Over the years it has become a giant, diverse, amazing force of it’s own that people love to attend every week. There are of course, farmers, but also, food trucks, bakers, jelly, candy, flowers, and every imaginable art and craft. If you have never been there, it’s time to get yourself up on Saturday morning from 7-12 and head on over. It’s in the Lincoln Square parking lot in Urbana. You can find the map HERE: I am always in spots #61 and #62.
I find that I go through phases in my jewelry design, as well as other parts of my creative life. I have learned to weave, but don’t like being stuck at the loom, so I incorporated wire weaving into my jewelry, totally portable! Here are a few of my latest pendants.

I started making “Doodle Earrings” last year, and have been working on some new designs. Here is one from last week, inspired by Cepropia wings.

This one is a prototype for the om mystical sound, sacred and important in various Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.
your pieces are so lovely, Debbie! I love that the Cepropia made it into the art! And I had no idea you have been selling at the market this long!
