I definitely have bees on the brain. So when I spotted my friend Christa’s honeycomb inspired necklace last week, I swooned. Her sweetie bought the necklace on stone&honey—a delightful online jewelry shop stocked with lovely gold and silver honeycomb jewelry, among other things.

I spent the better part of an afternoon trolling through stone&honey and its sister site smallthings, where I fell in love with a ring featuring a bold, graphic image of a bee and a necklace adorned with a chicken silhouette. Seriously, why did I not know about this jewelry before Christmas?

I was pleased to discover that Teresa Robinson, the artist behind stone&honey and smallthings, is based just down the road in Portland, Oregon and all her jewelry is designed and handmade in her studio. So this jewelry is not only cool, it’s local, too.
