Sometimes art can be a lonely, chaotic journey filled with self doubt. Especially when you rely on that art to pay the bills. But other times, you find someone on a parallel path, a like minded soul who understands your passion, and you inspire eachother. I can't tell you how many times I have been lucky enough to collab with talented artists on projects, and how many times my personal work has improved from that experience. Well, I'm happy to say, what you see here is the first piece to come from my new collaboration with @mercedesbrunelli. Mercedes and I met at the Emmy's gifting suite, thanks to @lisalew207 and @jezlan. We share so much in common, but our work is miles apart. Over the past few months we have been chatting about a collab, nothing solid taking form... and then this happened. We were planning a road trip to vegas for a private shopping party hosted by @falisha_rexford last weekend, and in preparing for the party, this came about. It is so refreshing to do something as a duo, to have another eye and another perspective. We love the few we have made so far, so we have decided there will be more to come. My raw crystal and silk vibes meet her Swarovski glam sparkle. Stay tuned, there will be a few of these up for grabs this Friday on my insta stories. They are truly one of a kind and hand made start to finish. Once they go, they are gone, so mark your calendars! Details to come...

Appreciation post!!! Cheers to the women who inspire and cheer others along. Do you know this gorgeous gal? Have you seen her on my feed before? Meet Jen of @em_erge, she makes all matter of things amazing (like the earrings she is wearing here!). She also has rainbow necklaces hitting the shop soon, so keep an eye out for that amazingness. If you dont follow her for the amazing skirts, dresses, earrings and necklaces made by her two hands, then follow her for all the cool brands she finds. Like seriously, I have found so many amazing artists through her posts. I'm also posting this picture because her talented hands are adorned with one of my over the top rings, and so how could I resist??? Do you follow Jen? Do you follow other amazing women I should know about? Please, tag them below and help me find more people who are making this world a better place every single day!!!

One of my favorite new necklaces. So many elements layered seamlessly into a simple, yet elegant, necklace. At its center is a quartz polished pyramid, a power stone to amplify energies and intentions. The chain is linked beads of amazonite, a stone all about connecting heart and throat chakras, helping to see both sides of a problem and aiding in compassion. There are also 7 lava stones, great for using as an essential oil diffuser. I have had people ask me about these lava stones, and how to use them. It's easy to add a drop of an essential oil or blend into the stones and carry that scent with you all day. You can put the same oil in each stone, or use a different oil in each one (7 beads, 7 chakras, no coincidences there). I'd love to know, what are some of your favorite oils to use daily???

Pura Taman Saraswati... one of the most beautiful temples visited on my trip to Bali. Dedicated to the Hindu goddess Sarasvati, the goddess of knowledge, music art and learning. I learned so much on my travels from our amazing guide, Yanta. He has been a tour guide for over 20 years, and he shared his in depth knowledge of culture and religion so freely. His easy manner and positive outlook were so pleasing, and his pride in Bali was unmatched. If any of my friends are planning a trip there, please let me know and I will pass on his info. He made this trip into so much more than I thought it could be. Our last morning in Ubud I was determined to make it to the temple. Google showed a 33 minute walk from our guesthouse, but thanks to narrow walkways, wobbly tiles, and the inevitable shopping along the way, we had to almost run the last 15 minutes to make it in time. So this casual picture where it looks like I'm cool as a cucumber, waiting on a bus??? Nope.... we were sweaty and tired but thrilled to get to wander the lotus ponds and beautiful temple. Good thing my Diane dress from @em_erge looks cute with tennis shoes, as I definitely needed them that day! As I am laying here resting and recovering from all the traveling, I am having a good time looking through pictures and sharing my stories with my husband. Figured I would share one of my favorites with you.

I am so excited to get back to work on new ideas that started developing while I was in Bali... but I'm learning a lesson in patience it seems. Still struggling with this flare up, and I have the dreaded iritis again, this time my left eye is affected too. I am happy I knew what it was this time and saw my opthamologist quickly. I'm so used to being go go go. This is a new thing for me. Maybe I need to learn to rest more, let my body heal. I really have no choice when a full on flare comes on, so here we go... There will be time soon to work on designs, and I'm crossing my fingers a few will be done before my trip to vegas next week! How are you all spending your Saturday? Let me live vicariously through you today 😘

Feeling a little broken today, suffering a massive flare up after my trip. Reminding myself that it will go away, and it is up to me to rest and recover now. I planned ahead, knowing how much this vacation would take out of me, so I have appts lined up with my doctors today already. It could be worse. Staying positive when in chronic pain is the hardest thing I have had to do, but I am trying. So today I am focusing on the fact that a week ago I climbed a volcano in the dark, i saw more beautiful stars than I have since my astrophysics days. I spent two hours with a guide and a flashlight getting up a mountain i could not see. Only one step at a time was illuminated for me. But I did it.
When I made it to the top, slower than most, but I still made it, i was rewarded with amazing views, a beautiful sunrise and a fresh perspective. On the way down, I saw what I had climbed up. I'll be honest, if I had known what I was doing, I would have given up and gone back. It was terrifying. Maybe there is a reason you climb in the dark. All I could handle was the step ahead of me. There is a lesson there somewhere 😉 so today, as I rest and let my body heal, I'm focusing on the step ahead of me. And then the next. And who knows what will come. But I will get there. Cheers to conquering your volcanoes today! #beingreal #bali #volcano #sunrisehike #ankylosingspondylitis #aswarrior #onestepatatime #sunrise #adventure #lifeisgood

So many of you have reached out to me since my post yesterday, which makes me happy to have this community. While my journey is deeply personal, it feels less alone to know so many of you guys care, and also have gone through similar things in the past. Through sharing our struggles, we can help eachother so much. For those of you who were asking for more info/details, here you go. I figure it is easier to post on here than reply to each DM, apologies if anyone finds this impersonal. As this is all still new for me, it is hard to share. *My diagnosis is Ankylosing Spondylitis, and autoimmune form of spinal arthritis. *While it sounds innocent enough, and I thought I was ready to handle it, it is much more than my spine and some occasional stiffness. *the past few months I have had flare ups that include my eyes, my hips, my shoulders and my ankles, as well as daily excruciating pain in my spine. Flare ups can also mimic Chrons and IBS, as well as psoriasis at times. Add some anemia to this, and I'm learning how much this has/will affect me with time. *its not always the same, nor is there always terrible pain. Some days I have a limp, some days I dont. Some days my body feels like lead, and others I am light as a feather. The point is, I just never know. *there is medication to slow the progression, although not cure or repair any damage done. I'm also working holistically to keep my joints moving and avoid medication if I can, but I'm not so naive to think it may not be my reality one day. For now, a strict diet and daily gentle movement has been the best. *it has severely limited the amount of time I can spend making jewelry, but it has not stopped me. While I may be making less than before, my goal is to keep exploring new designs and pushing the envelope for crystal jewelry as I have always done. *many of you have suggested @medicalmedium
And I'm super happy to check out his info, and since so many said it, I figured i would include it on here for anyone else who needs it. *there is so much more, yet even this seems like a lot. I understand the value of saying things out loud, but honestly, most days I just want to be "normal" and hide this.

It is the last day here in Bali. This journey has been just what I needed. I have spent the last two years worried about everything. Learning to deal with new physical limitations, trying to reconcile my former active existence with a new one of chronic pain. I have spent countless hours researching autoimmune disease, eastern and western medicines approaches to minimizing the damage of something incurable and unfixable. I have spent sleepless nights thinking about what I may lose, spent tired days forcing myself to focus on the positive and just be normal, despite the fatigue. I have been to more doctors, labs, physical therapists, yogis, reiki masters and chiropractors than I can count. It has consumed me. I woke up one day in August, knowing I was going to Bali this October. I was so sure i needed to be here, but I didn't know how I would get here, why I had to come, or who would come with me. Instead of letting that get to me, I just kept knowing it would happen. In a complicated series of perfect events, I ended up on a two week adventure with my good friend @photosofashopaholic, just as I knew it would happen. The weeks leading up to this trip were some of the hardest for me physically, and I worried about whether I would be well enough for 30 hour plane rides, hikes up to the top of volcanoes, and many many many other adventures. I travel all the time, but this was the first time my packing list included a long list of medications and "just in case" instructions from my doctors. This trip has helped me see I can still do it all, maybe not as fast or as agile, and maybe with some more rest planned than before. It helped me see I can still have my life, my way, regardless of what may be happening inside me. While I know I will never be as carefree as before, and there will always be worry and what ifs, I feel brighter about overcoming my obstacles. Life is too short not to climb the volcanoes, swing above the rice terraces, or to get on the plane. Thank you Bali for showing me how beautiful and blessed my existance is, just as it is. While there are things I cannot change, there are so many within my control and that is what makes my life magic.

Last few days here in Bali... this trip has meant so much to me personally and spiritually, only time will tell how it will affect me artistically. One thing I have noticed since my arrival, my aesthetic is so deeply rooted in many of the same concepts as Indonesian design and culture. While I have always known the influence Hindu and Buddhist principles have had on my thinking, I never really realized how much my style was in line there too. In my eating habits, my home decor, my style of dress... I feel at ease here. As I have explored balinese culture and traditional artisans, I keep seeing parallels to my jewelry as well (which makes total sense as my jewelry is an extension of me). The significance of threes, the lotus flowers, the balance and organic nature... I am reminded of this collection from Fall of 2018, specifically the cairn necklaces. I am so inspired to bring them back with a new twist. The cairn is a simple stack of stones used to mark a path. In my original design, I hung the cairn upside down, so when the wearer looks down at their necklace, they see it right side up. They are meant to mark your personal path, not that of others. In this way it guides you in subtle ways. I have always loved this necklace for that. So stay tuned for how Bali may have inspired an update to the cairn necklace, I cant wait to get back to the bench next week and create again! #followyourpath #desertdaisyjewelry #crystaljewelry #turquoise #baliadventures #bali #inspiredaily #cairns #intuitivejewelry #turquoisejewelry #handcrafted #travels #inspiredbytravel

If you have been keeping an eye on my stories, you know I am travelling in Bali, which means no markets or pop ups for awhile... But for my LA peeps, you can still shop my new collection at @energyhaus in long beach. Right before I left we restocked over there, including the mini labradorite moon necklaces like this one here! Speaking of Bali... should I be posting trabel pics on here too, or just my stories? What do you all want to see???

Wanderlust wednesday... is that a thing??? Anyway, I want to thank everyone who came out and supported the new collection this weekend. Insta orders have shipped, @energyhaus is stocked with new items from the collection for all my long beach people, and I am on my way to having the online shop open again soon! Today, I'm getting myself ready for 2 weeks away, Bali here I come! I am excited for this trip for so many reasons, but mainly because I love a good inspiration trip. I highly recommend shaking the dust off and heading somewhere new to get things unstuck sometimes. I remember when I was 20 years old and heading to California for my first trip (6 months long) and I told my mom "I want to visit one new place a year". Well, 21 years later, I am so proud to say that I have kept up with that goal. Travel feeds my soul, awakens my creativity, and reminds me how small and connected this Earth really is. As much as I love the little world I exist in, spreading my wings has become essential to who I am. So apologies ahead of time for less jewelry posts and more Bali posts for the next few weeks, hope you all dont mind! I'm not sure any pics will be as beautiful as this one of my sister @pinkiewillowsprite, taken by @studiodcf. Hair by @brittanyldirico and makeup by @donorebeauty. Dress by @em_erge (and girl, you better believe I'm taking my Diane dress with me to Bali!)

It's been a minute since I prepped for a Market... and I have THREE this weekend. Vegas, I will be at @westelmsummerlin Saturday 11-3, and then at @marketinthealley Saturday night 6-10pm. One more chance to catch me at @marketinthealley Sunday 12-4 before I head back to LA. I have been holed up in the studio working on all new pieces, and I'm so happy to see it come to life. These are the Siren Song pieces, they are made up of all the inspiration of the sea, and the moon, and that magical allure we all have a part of. From moons rising over mermaid caves, to murky depths represented with gorgeous labradorite, to sparkly mermaid treasures like the above aura spirit quartz and opal pendant. Even my classic designs have gotten an update for this collection, and I'm in love with how the crystal eclipse looks with copper barnacles and a chunkier chain... like it has been living under the sea for decades before coming up to the surface for these markets. I have so much work ahead of me to get ready, but I will continue to share sneak peeks on my stories. And for those of you who dont live in Vegas, I will be posting video walkthroughs of the setup at market so you can shop too. See my stories today for details. Life has been overwhelming lately, but nothing feels better than diving back into my work. Thank you all for supporting me always 💜🧜‍♀️💜 #desertdaisyjewelry #crystaljewelry #lasvegasjewelry #lasvegasartist #dtsummerlin #westelm #westelmlasvegas #downtownlasvegas #marketinthealley #fergusonsdowntown #auraquartz #opal #spiritquartz #community #communityovercompetition #vibes

One of the best things about putting collaborations together is that I get a chance to scope out all the coolest things that vibe with my jewelry. So when I found @em_erge and her Diane dresses, I made sure I got one of her first ones! Well, she is releasing 15 more (and the last release of this year) tomorrow. Check out her stories for more info on sizes and colors available. And if you want one, set an alarm, these babies sell fast! Owning one myself, I can tell you that the linen is so fabulous, the unique, hand dyed patterns are beautiful, and the weight makes it perfect for year round. Breathable for summer, with a good drape that makes it easy to layer for fall. It is always my joy to share talented makers with you, especially when they make perfect clothing to pair with your Desert Daisy Jewelry collection. Let me know if you guys are lucky enough to snag one of these limited styles! And if you have suggestions for other talented makers you think I should follow, give them a shoutout below 👇👇👇 Featured here, the designer herself in our Siren shoot.

Vegas, even when I can't make it back for an event... I find a way for part of me to be there 😂😂😂😂 Love this collaboration with @aumniapparel. When Heather asked me to help style her models for @picnicinthealley, I jumped at the chance. **REPOST FROM @AUMNIAPPAREL** Sent these beauties off to Sin City to be displayed (and sold!) during the @picnicinthealley event tomorrow 💫 🥂💫

Today is a busy monday for me... spending the morning catching up on book keeping (blah) and the afternoon getting to play with setting up a store display (yay! Details to come soon) This weekend has been a fun one for me, although exhausting! I was part of @connectforsuccess2019 event up in pasadena, then spent the day yesterday in Van Nuyes with the wardrobe department selecting jewelry for @yaseries and @thebaytheseries. I love getting to meet people who are doing their thing and are creative and inspiring. But I am looking forward to my Tuesday back in the studio where I can stay in my yoga pants and commune with my crystals a bit. Tell me, what are you looking forward to this week??? Ps- how fabulous do my @essarai_ceramics trays look in this pic from @taylormade_photolv?? Love love love getting to display my work in such a beautiful way. #desertdaisyjewelry #lifeofanartist #mondaymusings #mondaymotivation #crystals #hairsticks #crystalobsession #crystalhairsticks #handcrafted #madewithmagic #adventuresinjewelrymaking #entrepreneurlife
