For Spring 2016 I focused on simple geometry and the interplay of shape, proportion, and negative space. Forma is the result of a conversation between these ideas. Our classic hammered texture adds interest and dimension, allowing these pieces to shine in their simplicity. True to our core, each piece remains extremely lightweight, encouraging you to wear them again and again. They might just be your new favorite piece!

That’s right, my new collection in 14k gold and diamonds is almost here, and its EPICfail! It is the grander & bling-ier older sister of the fail jewelry you know and love, so it seemed only fitting to name it EPIC!
The collection will launch on a brand new failjewelry.com on Thursday September 17th, however, you can get your appetite wet with a preview of the lookbook below. And there’s more…. To celebrate the launch, I will also be hosting an Instagram GIVEAWAY of a fabulous piece from the new collection! Follow me now to make sure you are in the loop for all of the goodies to come.
I am surprised and honored to be one of the nominees in the 2015 Armadillo Awards by the Austin Independent Business Alliance. fail was nominated in the “Business With No Front” category and if you agree, we would love your vote! Voting continues until April 19th and you can cast your ballot for fail, among many other great Austin businesses, here. Thanks as always for your support! I couldn’t do any of this without you.
One of the main reasons for closing Schatzelein last year and building a studio behind our house was to give me more time to expand fail along with expanding my creative talents and skills. Designing and crafting custom ceremony rings was something I wanted to focus on, not only because I think Austin needs more non-traditional ceremony rings, but because it also allows me to push my creativity. The stress and excitement of creating a wedding band in precious metal with precious stones is thrilling and nerve racking, but the results are absolutely worth it. Being a part of that process, and being honored to create a ring that signifies a commitment as important as marriage is pretty special.
My goal in creating custom rings is to make rings that are organic, unique, every-day wearable, and price conscious. My customer doesn’t want to see another woman with the same ring and generally need a ring that is just as easy to leave on, as take off. I tend to love a hammered texture, and organic bezel is my preferred setting, and I love to offset it with flush-set small precious stones.
So… here are a few of the rings that I have created in the past few weeks and months. More are in the works and will come soon!
