Bracelets are popular holiday gifts for either kidney Donor, Recipient or special supporters through the journey of transplantation. Many of the ones I have are OOAK, one-of-a-kind. Others are limited quantity. Here are some of my favorites. More on the website.
Vintage and antique Kidney Jewelry is a new category for my annual gift guides. I have lots more to post, but time is always an issue. If you are looking for anything in particlar in the vintage jewelry department, feel free to ask me if I have it, or I can look for it in my buying trips to antique markets. Those trips are all on hold now due to Covid. I miss them and look forward to a time next year when I can again set out on a hunt for vintage jewelry and kidney shapes.

Tree of life designs are symbols for the continuity and growth which transplants provide. As metaphors for limbs that reach both upwards and around us, these designs represent a fresh start in life, an umbrella of protection, plus the opportunity to grow into something healthy and beautiful.

Kidney Key Rings are popular gifts for any gender, but particularly great when a transplant recipient and donor are different genders. The same kidney pendant can be used on both to tie them together, but item styles can be different. Below are a few of the many styles I carry. I sell the most in sterling silver rings with sterling kidneys. The same kidney could be on both a key ring and a pendant for example. Donor/Recipient gift sets often include a key ring and a pendant.

We all need some beauty during this sad, strange year. Fall is just the antidote for me. I found beauty right under my ruby slippers, in my own yard. These are leaves fallen or plucked from my 2 favorite trees. All except the yellow ones are from my Smokebush. The yellow ones are from a beloved 60′ tall glorious Gingko tree.
All the leaves on a Ginkgo often fall within the same 24 hours. It’s a beautiful sight to behold annually. Within 24 hours, the yard will be blanketed with gold. I’ll take another photo, but this one is my favorite from the season so far. Aren’t these leaves beautiful? Nature sure knows how to paint in color!
Don’t forget to look down to see Autumn right beneath your feet. If you only look in the distance, you may miss the best parts. Live in the moment, BE in the moment, wherever you are.

Having worked in photography, printmaking, painting, dollmaking, quilting, ceramics and lampworking glass beads, I finally found my creative home in jewelry making. While working with beads and jewelry design full time since 1991, I’ve managed to combine that passion with my experience as a kidney patient.
Since losing my own kidney function, my heroic living donor gave me not only the Gift of Life but also the true meaning of giving. The words Precious Kidney ring in my heart daily. She inspired me to create this line of special jewelry.
