We will have a vast selection of Lilly Barrack’s designs in store this weekend.  There will also be a selection of Native American jewelry from various artists. Come in for refreshments and enjoy early holiday shopping before the rush and crowds!  I am teaming up with me neighbors, Bella Casa and Prickly Pear for an early Christmas Open House in historic downtown Monument.  Each store will have a drawing for a $100 gift certificate.  Hours will be from 10 to 4 on Friday and Saturday, November 4th and 5th.  See you there!

Titled “Spirit” from Kathleen’s Veracity collection, this is one of her new designs in the store.  Look for the rest of her pieces to be uploaded in the next week and made available for sale. 

Kathleen is a local Colorado artist and I am honored to have her work in the store.  See more about Kathleen under ARTISTS.

There’s always something new ‘on the trail’.

I’ve just introduced a new collection to the Santa Fe Trail.  The designs feature collections of colors and my favorite beads!  I have collected beads for many years and these are some of the best finds.   Each bracelet and necklace will be slightly different, and therefore one-of-a-kind.

Just in for Mother’s Day!  Arlee Kasselman has sent me a beautiful collection of her stunning designs.  The styles range from petite and sweet to bold and chunky in a variety of price ranges.  Come in today to see which one suits your own artistic style!

I love this company’s designs and workmanship.  Shown here is  one of my favorite designs, the Copperhead Snake.

“At the heart of Julio Pagliani you’ll find the people of Norogachi, a small town deep in Mexico’s Sierra Madre, reachable only by sometimes impassable dirt roads through a land of Tarahumara Indians and Mestizo farming families.  Working with these talented people, we craft beautiful bracelets, necklaces and accessories embraced by the finest shops.”

When you purchase a design with Julio Pagliani’s name, you are helping a village to find fairly paid work…and make much-needed money….without having to leave home and family.

Arizona artist, Kit Carson has brought a taste of the wild to Santa Fe Trail Jewelry.  Inside some of his bracelets is this wonderful inscription of “Bad to the Bone”.  Kit’s Stitch bracelets are inscribed with “Life is Good” inside.  If you want a piece of the ‘wild side’, look for his work here at Santa Fe Trail Jewelry.
Jewelry with attitude.

I carry a collection of sterling horse pins that are inspired by historical images of horses throughout the ages.  From the walls of Lascaux in France dating back 18,000 bc to the Tang Dynasty (618-960 ad) to 19th century Ledger Book drawings, these horses are sure to captivate the horse lover. 

Go to Gallery and Shop, then click on the Sterling Pins tab to view this horse lovers collection.

Trollbeads arrived in Monument, CO in March of 2008.  I was  searching for a line of beads that were truly extra-ordinary for my store, Santa Fe Trail Jewelry. Many of my customers were designing their own unique jewelry and I felt that something was missing in my store. Imagine a line that offered you an entire world in a piece of jewelry, your jewelry. Your choice by palette, with your own signature of symbolism, its own myth. That is what Trollbeads has to offer us as designers! By having over 450 items to choose from, we can each have a very unique, stunning creation unlike anyone elses. Each of us has now become an artist. Inspiration happens when so many choices are offered. Each bracelet or necklace is like a snowflake or a fingerprint. No two will be alike, and as ever-changing as a woman’s mood! That is the magic of Trollbeads!
