Jewelry Stories from His Amish Wife’s Hidden Past + Bonus GIVEAWAY!
Hi there! I’m so happy you decided to join me today for a recap of some fun designs created for His Amish Wife’s Hidden Past by Mindy Steele. Mindy was a new-to-me author, but referred by another author who I admire. When she asked me if I would be interested in reading one of her books and designing some pieces, I jumped at the chance – mostly because she writes Amish fiction which I enjoy so very much.

Jewelry Stories from When the Day Comes PLUS Sneak Peek from In This Moment!
If you love Outlander or any type of time-travel inspired story, then you simply must read When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer!

Jewelry Stories from Beach Haven + Book Review
Thank you so much for joining me for today’s Jewelry Stories! Admittedly, I’ve been waiting to share today’s book and designs for several months now. I kinda had to stew over this story and these characters for a while before sharing a review because when I first read it, I thought it was gonna be a DNF. (Don’t you hate when that happens?!)

But my slight case of OCD would not let me leave it alone, so about 6…

I can’t tell you what joy I get from combining my two favorite things – books and jewelry – into these pieces that help bring these stories to life in new ways. Today’s book will already be making it into my Top 10 favorite books for this year, so there was no question that some inspiration for jewelry and bookmarks would be found within its pages.
