March will be an exciting month! To kick off, we have the opening of the Cape Ann Artisans Exhibit at the Cape Ann Museum! Then save the date for March 14th Belle + me launch at the Rocky Neck Cultural Center where I will showcase some new designs involving scarves – a joint venture with Anne Malvaux & Lisa LeVasseur from East Gloucester.

“Every shard of sea glass that washes up on the shore is the result of chemistry and chance. A bottle or bowl, lost at sea, is buffeted by waves and scrubbed by sand for decades, even centuries. Eventually, a crystalline surface develops on the glass and the edges of the pottery turn smooth as bone, a reminder of humanity’s ability to create and nature’s power to erode. Jacqueline Ganim-DeFalco gathers these jewels and, at her Cape Ann Designs studio in Gloucester, arranges pieces of beer-bottle amber against the elusive ship-light red to produce tableaus on brooches and hair accessories. While “mechanically assisted” sea glass is widely manufactured, Ganim-DeFalco uses only material that has gained its beauty on the ocean floor.”
