Plugged In...to Rapunzels Gold

Welcome to the 2nd edition of Plugged In, featuring another of my wonderfully talented Pluggers United Team friends...Rapunzels Gold.

Rebecca, the artist behind Rapunzels Gold, is a wife, mom, artist and world traveler (thanks to her years in the US Navy.) Her designs are influenced by the art and architecture of the countries that she's visited. These textural elements have been beautifully translated into sterling silver and gold-plated adornments such as this beautiful sterling silver Infinity Bracelet

and Silver and Pearl Heart earrings

This creative artist has been selling at art shows for over a decade, but Rebecca has only recently started sharing her talent online through Etsy. As any online shop owner can tell you, a picture is worth a thousand views. Buyers are drawn to a particular item primarily because of the way it has been photographed. Rebecca's skill behind the camera makes her fabulous jewelry that much more appealing to the buyers who are surely flocking to her shop.

A natural photographer, her gorgeous jewelry is highlighted in a pure, elegant style that could grace the pages of a glossy magazine. Rebecca is humble about her photography skills, but is very willing to share her tips and tricks. As she noted in a recent interview on BlockheadRod's Artisan for Artisan radio show, more professional pictures make a better Etsy, which will attract more business for all of us.

Stop by Rapunzels Gold, to adorn your fingers wrists and ears in handmade luxury.

PS: This grouping would make a beautiful birthday gift for someone special (hint, hint Mama and Daddy!)
