Weddings are so much fun and sometimes it is the understated designs that work best. I designed this set for a wedding held this past weekend in the hills above Berkeley, CA. The bride wore a beautiful ivory gown with a shirred bodice. It was cut on the bias and flowed with every turn. The dress was understated and the bride wore her hair down in large curls. It was important we add to the elegance of the picture while balancing the elements of the look.
We made slight modifications to the length of the necklace and the bride chose a variation on the earrings pictured here. She looked stunning as she walked down the aisle.

Born and raised just outside Philadelphia, I moved to Chicago after college and San Jose in 2008. I now have two decades of experience in jewelry design including countless hours of mentoring by expert artisans and ten “hands on” years in fine jewelry manufacturing. As a result I bring a wealth of knowledge about materials, craftsmanship and style to the table. Beyond jewelry, I have a passion for words and the intentional use of language. I believe we create our experience in life and am writing a book on the topic because I am curious… What else is possible? ~ Suzanne Bayles
This blog is for all of us. Selfishly, it’s a way for me to have all of my projects in one place so I can see progress over time & know your thoughts about them. As the blog grows it will provide practical info on both jewelry and the intentional use of language. Strange bedfellows perhaps. Welcome to my world!

I am fortunate to have the love and support of family and friends across the country; one in particular has known me since I was barely old enough to ride a tricycle in her driveway. Much love to all!
