A whole week without jewelry?  It's been a while, but we decided it's only healthy (for life and business) to have some time away from work...despite the fact that we don't really consider it "work" because we love what we do so much.  Even still, this week is our official Elva Fields Summer Vacation, and our studio and offices will be closed through Sunday, June 19th.  We'll be back in action next week and looking forward to sharing the new jewels with you at the end of the month. (June 30th, to be exact.)

Thanks for being such great customers and see you next week!

Though we're still getting situated in our new digs, we're loving the studio setting so far!  First, the acknowledgements: We owe Mama Deb a gigantic thank-you for making the move happen on time and as scheduled...she did ALL of the painting, ALL of the shelving prep, and coordinated ALL of the fun furnishings in our seating area.  Better half Patrick constructed most of the rest of the furniture that arrived in boxes with instructions, and has us up and running with new desks and shelves in no time.  Et voila!  The family affair made it all possible.  

Check out some shots of the space below...and stay tuned for more fun updates from the brand new Elva Fields Headquarters as we settle in over the coming weeks.

Where the design and production magic happens...our new desks and shelves!

Lots of storage for our goods...

Our sitting area (with Holiday 2010 Collection earring proposals on trays...yes, we're already working on holiday!) featuring a vintage rattan sofa originally from great-grandmother Elva Fields' porch (recovered in our signature colors, of course.)

A studio-warming gift from Deb--we saw these chairs at an antique store and fell in love...but they were sold.  Somehow she tracked them down for our new space as a fun (and incredibly special) surprise.  We were overjoyed...but wish we had more time to relax in them!

Elva Fields fans in L.A. now have a new source for beautiful baubles for the neck...and for the home!  Interior designer Tamara Kaye-Honey has just opened her gorgeous showroom in South Pasadena, where you can see her eclectic mix of finds that define her signature style--The New Vintage.  In short, it's fabulous.  And not just because of the jewelry...but we love that we feel right at home on the West Coast!

For all the moms out there…we hope you have a wonderful weekend and enjoy a day just for you! (And…for some fun jewelry to celebrate…one of our newest retailers has a great idea!)
