Long necklace constructed with African beads and gemstones in lavender, lilac, purple, and lime on a pale tan background.
Felt like a wonderful way to use orphaned Kazuri beads. Makes me think of old timey lavender candy.
I’m releasing this year’s first collection, Trifles, Friday the 24th @ 8pm ET. It centers richly colored ceramic beads handmade in Kenya by women artisans.

Picture candid photo of MLK’s family eating at a dinner table. The color tones that stand out most are faded browns, pinks, teals, and white.
I had the honor of disbursing funds to 7 Altadena families today. Social media isn’t all ponies & cotton candy but 30 people, many of whom I’ve never met, contributed their hard earned $$ to make a tangible difference for folks in need. To me, this is what MLK Day is about.

One of the best things about professing: re-reading books often with new people. #aishalikesit #blacksky #kindred #octaviabutler
