Great American Roadtrip Part 2: Santa Fe, NM
David and I are on our annual winter RV journey in pursuit of more light and less moisture. After driving 5000 miles south, then west across the country, we are savoring New Mexico, the “Land of Enchantment.” Spending a little more time in Santa Fe over the new year was a great decision.


2025 feels like a year to kick back, extend a bow of gratitude to old and new clients and gain my bearings after Fareed’s loss. Heartfelt thanks to those who reached out and offered support after he passed away in November.

Restyled necklaces: heirloom Diamond with antique chain, natural Emerald crystal with 18K handmade finial caps.
I continue to design on my travels and as the precious stones in my collection find their humans, I am further inspired to create. I plan to attend the Tucson Gem and Mineral show next month. Please let me know if there is a specific mineral, gem, or color that you would like to carry with you through this year.

“Celestial Tides” Custom14K rose gold ring. Yellow satin Opal with chatoyant “eye”, found Diamond on NY subway, client’s Turquoise nugget custom cut for ring.
May you find solace in the work that you do, and beauty in its daily creation.
Happy New Year,
Lainey
