Simple and sweet 💛 Thank you all for the loving & kind messages. Your support means the world. Today I’m working on updating my Etsy Store with a few new pieces & this gorgeous waterweb turquoise necklace will be included. . . . . #TurquoiseTuesday #WaterwebTurquoise #TurquoiseLover #HechoEnMano #SouthwestInspired #ChicBohemian #TurquoiseJewelry #Turquesa #FronteraDesigns #TravelingArtist #QuarantineStyle #socialdistancing #ArtistQuarantine #ArtistIsolation

A recent mantra, helping to ground and soothe the soul... These times are trying for us all, including small business owners, but I am still open for business. These FEAR NOT cuffs are available for $40 (including shipping). DM if you are interested ❤️ I would be so grateful. . . . . #FearNot #Mantra #EaseYourSoul #Silversmithing #IntentionalJewelry #FronteraDesigns #IntentionalCuff #SilverCuff #ShopSmall #SupportSmallBusinesses #QuarantineGiveaway #RioJeweler #QuarantineStyle

I’m back in the studio, practicing social distancing with my new FIANCÉ! ❤️❤️❤️ Cliff and I had an amazing trip in the backcountry, biking with the most amazing group of friends. I’m finally starting to re-enter myself and find optimism within the current state of our world. I’m tapping in the best way I know how - melting metal, doing cardio, and loving those around me. . . . What are y’all doing to stay positive? . . . #ArtistRetreat #Optimism #SeekPositivity #LoveYourself #Engaged #Creative #Moab #LadySmith #EngagedAF

Oh my, this week has been interesting. When things get a little hectic, does anyone else just want to throw in the towel and peace? That’s where I’m at!!! In 24 hours I’ll be desert bound with my boo, gear, and tools. . . . For #SpringBreak2020 I’ll be biking a 100 mile trail with my best friends in one of the most beautiful places, then boondocking in my camper and creating one of a kind pieces (like these cuffs). I hope all of you find peace in the chaos. With so much love and gratitude. -Chayse . . . . #WhiteRimBound #TeachersWhoTravel #TeachersWhoExplore #TeachersWhoHustle #GetOutside #TurquoiseCuffs #TurquoiseOverDiamonds

Happy Friday Folks! Jubel made a cover to “Dancing in the Moonlight” and I listened to it WAY to many times as I made this necklace... There’s nothing like a dance party to get the creative flow going. . . . Hope you all have a kickass weekend and maybe find some time to Dance in the Moonlight ✌🏼💃🏻🌙 . . . . #DanceInTheMoonlight #MarchMeetTheMaker #NatureInspired #OptOutside #MountainMade #MountainNecklace #MountainLover #MoonPhase #OptHandmade #ColoradoProud #LadyPower
