Featured Designers of Week

Each Monday we feature the Designer of the Week. One of our editors pick their favorite from the Monthly Challenge entries.

A necklace came through flickr last night and I couldn't ignore it. It really deserves a feature. Once again it's the end of the month and I am picking two beautiful pieces.

This week Tari Sasser picked Summer Sunami by Heather Pyle.

Tari noted, "I was so intrigued by this piece and realistic polymer clay shell. The swirling handmade polymer beads, coral and shell it's perfect for this months challenge." To see more of Heather's work please visit her Etsy store.

I also had to feature a necklace by Nancy Schindler of Round Rabbit.

Nancy was trying to keep up with Tari and procrastinating. Nancy's necklace was posted Sunday evening and it is so unique it deserves to be a part of Monday's feature.

"The necklace used the shapes, colors and movement of this months challenge. I am in awe of it's uniqueness I think it should be worn on a Runway somewhere in New York or Paris."

To see more of Nancy's work please visit her Etsy store.
