Karen Jess – Shell Jewelry
September 15, 2010
I’ve been a fan of Karen Jess’s beautiful shell jewelry for several months now. I love that each piece is handcrafted here in Vancouver from a shell that she’s found on one of her many surf trips. My husband is really into surfing, and I’ve dabbled a time or two, though I prefer boogie boarding when the water is warm and the waves are a fun size and speed. I’ve got lots of great summer memories of time at the beach with friends and family – spending hours out in the surf, picnicking on the beach and retreating in the evening to a campsite or lodge for games and S’mores.
Just as we say our goodbyes to summer – I think it’s great that Karen Jess has opened up her long awaited online shop, so we can get a little something to remember our favorite beach memories by.
