Reader Celebration :: Hello, Splendor

up for grabs: a special made "Wild&Precious" Necklace

meet one of my sweet blogging buddies, Beth - the gal behind Hello, Splendor blog and shop: 


Q: Tell me about the inspiration behind your etsy store?
A: I have been making jewelry for years and at one point I even owned another jewelry business with friends, which I made the decision to let go of to make more time for my son. I loved blogging so much that I decided making jewelry was something I could do to honor the blogging community. I started my shop so that I could create pieces to name after some of my favorite bloggers. It remains a very casual business that I've used to make new friends and give little shout out to my favorite bloggers.

Q: How is your personal style reflected in the items you create?
A: I prefer to create simple pieces that are beautiful, delicate, and can be your everyday pieces. It reflects my style in that my pieces are functional and not frivolous.

Q: If you could see some of jewelry on any celebrity, who would you pick? why?
A: I'd love to see my piece on the set of Gossip Girl! Can you say Blair Waldorf or Serena van der Woodsen?

Q: Any favorite music you listen to or other customs you have when making jewelry?
A: I'm usually listening to upbeat, but low key tunes. You can't get too excited when you're dealing with the intricacies of jump rings... The Shins, Phoenix, My Morning Jacket, and Spoon are always good standbys.

Q: In three words, why do you love blogging?
A: Connecting. With. People.
