What It Means to Wear Strength in Bloom

Jewelry for women who plant, carry, and still show up sparkling.

This Ain’t a Flower Crown Moment

Spring has arrived, and listen—we love a good bloom. But for those of us living a little closer to the land, we know that “spring” doesn’t always mean soft pastels and iced tea on the porch.

Sometimes it means:

• Lugging 40-pound bags of feed uphill

• Getting pecked on the ankle by a hen with opinions

• Mud. So much mud.

• Chicks in the brooder and grit in your coffee

• Remembering—at 10:34 PM—that you left the coop door open. Again.
  
  

And still? You wouldn’t trade it.

Because through all the chaos, the noise, the fluff flying through the air—there’s growth. There’s joy. There’s this big, blooming, brass-filled life.

And that’s what inspired the Daisy Collection.

Blooming with Backbone

Let’s talk daisies.

They’re sweet, right? Friendly little blooms, harmless in a field?
Sure. Until you realize they grow where nothing else will.
That they thrive in gravel, cracks, and forgotten corners of the world.

Daisies are rebels in bloom. And we love them for it.

Each piece in the Daisy Collection starts with a real, fired casing—cut down, polished, and transformed. Then comes the daisy: delicate at first glance, but don’t be fooled. She’s stubborn, scrappy, and she will show up where she’s not supposed to.

Sound like anyone you know?

This is jewelry for the woman who hauls feed in one hand and coffee in the other.
Who grows her own dinner and still finds time to wear something pretty.
Who smiles sweetly while getting. stuff. done.

Tales from the Coop

We’ve been deep in the homestead trenches lately. Our current lineup includes:

• 35 hens who made it through winter like champs
  

• 16 chicks growing at the speed of chaos
  

• …and a questionable number of Cornish cross chicks arriving next week 🙃
  
  

And then there’s LG (Little Gray)—our tiny, one-footed legend.

She had a leg injury as a chick, and we weren’t sure she’d make it. But LG? She’s got moves. She hops across the yard faster than the rest can run. And when she wants cuddles, she just sits on your foot. Like, “Excuse me, pick me up please.”

She’s not broken. She’s brilliant.

And she’s exactly the kind of spirit this jewelry is made for.

What Gardening Teaches You (Besides Patience and Weed Identification)

If you garden, you get it. It’s not always dreamy Pinterest homesteading. It’s dirt under your nails, surprise late frosts, and watching tomato plants grow faster than your to-do list.

But it’s also:

• The thrill of the first sprout

• The therapy of a quiet morning with your hands in the soil

• That weird pride in a perfectly round zucchini

• And the peace that comes from doing something slow, real, and satisfying
  
  

Gardening grounds you.
Chickens keep you humble.
And jewelry like this? It reminds you that even in the mess—you bloomed anyway.

Behind the Brass: How the Daisy Jewelry Is Made

 

We get asked a lot: “How do you turn a bullet into a flower?”

And the answer? You take your time. You do it by hand. And you do it with purpose.

Step 1: Fired Casings, Not Fakes

We start with real brass casings from live-fire ranges. These are the real deal—used, emptied, and often overlooked. They’ve already held force. Now, they’ll hold meaning.

Step 2: Cutting It Down

Using a lathe, each casing is cut down to its head stamp—the circular part stamped with caliber and brand. It’s a literal cross-section of something built for impact.

Step 3: Darken the Lettering

We enhance the stamp so it’s crisp and readable. Because the details matter. The marks tell the story.

Step 4: Polish by Hand

This part takes patience. It’s not factory-finished. It’s human-polished, and every mark is intentional.

Step 5: Add the Daisy and Crystal

Each bloom is carefully placed and sealed. The final piece is subtle, symbolic, and absolutely wearable—whether you’re off to the farmer’s market or out to feed the girls.

This is what we mean by refined, resilient, reloaded.

For Women Who Live in the Real Seasons

This jewelry wasn’t made for Pinterest boards or perfectly posed flat lays.
(Though we won’t lie—it photographs beautifully in a nest of fresh eggs.)

It’s made for:

• Women who raise their own food

• Women who walk the property line before the sun’s up

• Women who find joy in little things and strength in big ones

• Women who do hard things with soft hearts and steel spines
  
  

You don’t have to explain this life to anyone.
You just wear it—and those who know, know.

Why Wearing It Matters

Maybe you’re not someone who usually wears jewelry.
Or maybe you’ve never found anything that felt like you.

This is different.

This isn’t flashy or performative. It’s not seasonal fluff or mall sparkle.
It’s something you slip on while lacing up your boots.
Something that stays on while you chase a rogue hen through the yard.
Something that reminds you—you’re doing it.

You’re growing something real.
You’re creating a life that doesn’t always get a filter.
And even if no one sees it… you know.

Jewelry with backbone.
Florals forged from fire.
And a little reminder that blooming on your own terms? That’s the real flex.

Want to Wear a Little Grit with Your Grace?

We built this collection for the women who show up—muddy boots, messy bun, coffee in hand, and still managing to look like the embodiment of soft strength.

You don’t need permission to feel powerful.
You already are.
 Now you’ve just got the brass to prove it.
