found whimsy: sarah hood

what a wonderful world sarah hood creates with her whimsical collections of jewelry. using found objects from the natural realm, like the polished acorns in the top piece, or bits of faux flora found at the hobby shop, she transforms them into gems before our eyes. the bottom photo is a stunning ring from her enameled collection, bursting with color on stripped down flower forms.

you simply must view her whole body of work, it will delight you right here.

I LOVE Sarah Hood's work!! I have turned to her for inspiration many times in my own work (like my butterfly rings). Thank you for sharing!!
