She Only Wears “Real” Jewelry

Two women strolled by my booth…one admired my work and said so to her friend…her friend “sniffed” and said – right in front of me – “I ONLY wear REAL jewelry.”

Copper and sterling silver fused and hand painted

The admiring friend realized I had heard their conversation and turned bright red and nudged her friend away. I just stood there amazed at what people will say with the artist within earshot.

Then…a few days later, another woman said the same thing… to my face.

Fused and reticulated sterling silver, opal and green crystal

So, other than the “Bruce Baker” response of “Well my jewelry isn’t for everyone.”… any other ideas?

I’ve included pics of my “not real” jewelry! 😉
