Love Love Love. That's what I thought when I spotted these Mesi Jilly rings in a magazine a year or so ago.
Crafted out precious metals and stones, at $800-$1400 each, their price tags were just a tad over my 'frivolous spending budget', but I was determined to have one.
Though how could anyone decide which one is the most beautiful? I couldn't choose, I'd have to have more than one! But then I'd really be over budget. What a conundrum. And then I wondered... could I make my own Mesi Jilly-inspired rings at a lower price point? I do live in Florida where seashells are aplenty.
But I was at the great disadvantage of not having NYC's garment district and all of the places I go for crafty bits and pieces around the corner anymore.
I decided to try and was determined to end up with some lovely pieces to wear. After some thought, and several trips to several stores for a variety of supplies, I got to work. Then I got carried away. Shell ring anyone?
