Father’s Day is this weekend, and if you’re still searching for a gift with meaning, I’ve got you covered. What do you get for the father figure who insists he doesn’t need a thing? A pair of handcrafted cufflinks might just surprise him-in the best way. Made from solid sterling silver and natural gemstones, these aren’t just accessories. They’re small pieces of wearable art with staying power.
✨
Whether he’s suiting up for a special event or just wants to add a little polish to his weekday wardrobe, these cufflinks will be a reminder of your love each time he puts them on. And years from now? They’ll carry stories and memories worth passing down.
✨
Give him something thoughtful. Something lasting. Something he’ll never expect-but always appreciate.

💖 Why Personalized Jewelry Means So Much. Personalized jewelry doesn’t just sit pretty in a box—it lives with you. It becomes part of your story. It’s the little charm you reach for when you need a reminder of your children’s giggles. It’s the stack of rings that feels like home on your finger. It’s the locket or pendant that holds more than metal—it holds meaning.
✨
These are the pieces that travel with you through life. That mark the milestones, honor the memories, and celebrate the love that never stops growing. Whether you’re adding to your own collection or building something special for someone you love, each piece adds to a bigger story.
✨
Add to your story, one charm at a time.
Wear your love wherever you go.

The first day of spring calls for something fresh, vibrant, and full of life—just like these earrings!
✨
Featuring bright green chrysoprase cabochons set in a vintage-inspired filigree design, they embody renewal and transformation in more ways than one. The original mounting was once a pendant, but I couldn’t resist giving it a new life as earrings—the full, romantic curves were too beautiful not to wear.
✨
I’m beyond excited for warmer days ahead, dreaming of finally feeling the sun kiss my skin and listening to the waves crash at the shore. 🌊💚

Yoga is my way of creating balance—between work, creativity, and the everyday grind. I try to practice 1-2 times a week, and every session gives me a workout and a moment to reset. Moving with intention, focusing on my breath, and making space in my mind helps me feel grounded and recharged.

Happy International Women’s Day! Today I’m celebrating the women in my life who inspire me: my mother, grandmother, aunt, and great aunt.
✨
Today is especially meaningful to me because it also marks my grandmother’s birthday—a woman whose strength, creativity, and determination continue to inspire me. She and her sister, my great aunt, were the catalyst for my love of craft. If something wasn’t available, they made it—beautifully. From dresses and blankets to doll clothes and home-cooked meals, their hands crafted a world of warmth and care.
✨
I carry their lessons with me every day, and on this day, I celebrate them even more.
✨
To all the incredible women shaping the world with their talent, love, and strength—Happy Women’s Day!

The auction for @jewelersunite is live and you can bid on jewelry from 65 designers to help raise money for the SoCal Fire Fund.

I’ve chosen to donate a truly special piece to their auction: an Opal Bead Necklace featuring sandy-colored opals. These gems evoke California’s stunning beaches and the laid-back vibe I’ve always admired. This necklace is more than just jewelry; it’s a symbol of resilience and hope, designed to remind us of the beauty that endures even in challenging times.
✨

These aren’t just hoop earrings—they’re a journey. My Peekaboo Hoops started as a simple prototype in 2005, and since then, they’ve evolved into one of my most versatile designs.
✨
Twisting gently around the earlobe, each pair features a bezel-set cabochon gemstone that sits just below the ear, adding an effortless and chic pop of color. Over the years, I’ve worked with a spectrum of stones, from Mandarin garnet and blue sapphire to Ethiopian opal, black onyx, and red garnet.
✨
But the magic doesn’t stop there—you can make these earrings truly your own. I’ve created an array of charms you can hang and layer to customize your look. Whether you’re after subtle sparkle or bold drama, the possibilities are endless.
✨
Swipe through to see how the Peekaboo Hoops have evolved over the years! Which style speaks to you most? Available online at my online store MejiaJewelry.com or @space85jewelry and in person at @atelier_d_emotion

Check out @space85jewelry feed today and learn about one of my favorite gemstones: mandarin garnet! I love to use garnets when I’m using small stones because their colors are so vibrant and you can pack a lot of punch in a small stone!
✨
