It All Began With Mom
(in more ways than one)
 While I was still in school, long before I even dreamt of starting my own company, I made a necklace for my mom for Mother's
day - four sterling silver leaves hung together representing her four children. This single creation
eventually became the inspiration for what is now the essence of my
entire company: natural beauty, elegant simplicity, and designs that
come straight from the heart. To this day, pieces from the Earth collection are among my most popular designs and have set the tone for all collections to come. Quite fitting that my mom should own "the
mother" of all leaf jewelry. (Also quite fitting that my mom
happens to be a natural beauty herself!) Happy Mother's Day mom!
Mother's Day is less than a month away. Sunday, May 11th is the big day... DON'T FORGET!
I mention this now because by the time the next newsletter goes out, it
will be too late to order something special from Mushka. Read on for gift ideas and information on new stores now carrying Mushka.
