sweet talk

What is your favorite part of Valentine's Day?

Is it the heart shaped boxes filled with chocolates? A romantic evening to spend with your special someone? The love filled cards? The cozy, romantic restaurants? Or the excuse to send your secret crush a valentine?

Personally, my favorite part of Valentine's Day isn't romantic at all. My favorite are the little conversation hearts, you know the ones, the candy shaped hearts with the cutesy phrases on them like "be mine," "i love you," or "text me."

Last year, just after Valentine's Day passed, I had the idea to make a necklace with little silver conversation hearts on them... just like the candy. Immediately, I stopped what I was doing (eating candy hearts no less) and began working. Nearly a year later, I finally get to spill the beans!

These little sterling silver conversation hearts are just as sweet as the real thing, but no calories! They are $74 for the plain heart without the stone, the heart with the emulated garnet is $84. The conversation hearts are only available for a limited time in my etsy & big cartel studios, and available on the beehive co-op website. So hurry before they are all gone!

I really think I have a thing for "food" jewelry... fortune cookies and now conversation hearts?!
