for those of you who don't know, aphrodite is the greek goddess of love & beauty. at this very location near paphos, cyprus, aphrodite was born amidst the sea foam when she rose from the sea a fully grown woman. greek myth has it that if you swim nude around her rock three times, you will achieve eternal youth & fertility.
we took a day trip there this weekend to see what all the buzz was about, and it was absolutely astonishing. while there, i found beautiful mediterranean sea stones which are proving to be lovely pendants, soon to be for sale in my etsy shop.

growing up in a small coastal town, i have been exposed to both craft fairs and beaches for as long as i can remember. i began creating one-of-a-kind pieces from the sea glass and shells that i found when walking the beaches. it has always been my goal to create jewelry that will bring the same happiness to those who wear it as i have found lingering in the memories of the beaches of my childhood.
